  • Action — What type of change was made

  • Old Values — The previous values before the change
  • New Values — The updated values after the change

Exporting Audit Logs

To export your audit log data:

  1. Apply any desired filters to narrow the data.
  2. Click the Export CSV button.
  3. 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.

tip

Use the date range filter before exporting to keep file sizes manageable. Exporting without filters may produce a very large file.
