Audit history

2 minute readAudit and compliance

Audit history provides detailed tracking of actions performed on feature configurations, including flags, target groups, and custom properties. It offers insight into their creation, modifications, and removal, enabling better traceability and accountability.

What audit history captures

Audit history logs a variety of information to provide a clear and actionable record of changes. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Type of change (for example, created, updated, removed).

  • The type of entity affected (e.g., flag, target group, or custom property).

  • Timestamp of the change.

  • The team member or automated system that performs the action.

Changes to application or environment names are not currently captured in audit history, even though this information is displayed in the flag entity change records.

For example. if an environment name changes, flag entity change records will reflect the new environment name, but there is no dedicated "environment record" indicating when the name change occurred.
