Audit Logs
FlowForth maintains a detailed audit trail of changes made to key entities in your organization. Use audit logs to track who changed what, when, and from where.
Before You Begin
You need the Organization Admin role to access audit logs. See Understanding User Roles for more information.
Accessing Audit Logs
- Click Settings in the main navigation menu.

What Is Tracked
Audit logs capture changes to the following entity types:
| Entity | Examples of Tracked Changes |
|---|---|
| Invoices | Created, updated, sent, cancelled |
| Credit Notes | Created, updated, issued |
| Clients | Created, updated, deleted, archived |
| Organizations | Settings changes, updates |
Each log entry records one of these actions:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Created | A new record was created |
| Updated | An existing record was modified |
| Deleted | A record was permanently deleted |
| Soft Deleted | A record was archived or deactivated |
Reading an Audit Log Entry
Each entry in the audit log includes:
- Timestamp — When the change occurred (UTC)
- Entity Type — What kind of record was changed
- Entity Identifier — The name, number, or ID of the record (e.g., invoice number, client name)
- Action — What type of change was made
- User — The email address of the user who made the change
- Changed Properties — Which fields were modified
- Old Values — The previous values before the change
- New Values — The updated values after the change
- IP Address — The IP address of the request
Filtering and Searching
Use the filter controls at the top of the page to narrow down the log:
| Filter | Options |
|---|---|
| Entity Type | Filter by Invoices, Credit Notes, Clients, or Organizations |
| Action | Filter by Created, Updated, Deleted, or Soft Deleted |
| User | Filter by the user who made the change |
| Date Range | Last 3 months, custom range, or all time |
| Search | Free-text search across log entries |
Results are paginated with 20 entries per page.
Exporting Audit Logs
To export your audit log data:
- Apply any desired filters to narrow the data.
- Click the Export CSV button.
- A CSV file is downloaded with the filename
audit-log-export-{date}.csv.
The export includes all fields: timestamp, entity type, entity ID, identifier, action, user email, changed properties, old values, new values, and IP address.
Use the date range filter before exporting to keep file sizes manageable. Exporting without filters may produce a very large file.
