Details

To support viewing capabilities and allow users to assess when changes were made to custom fields, what the change was (field, workflow, order of field, etc.), and the user that made the change, we include several custom field values within the Request audit logs and system audit logs.

When exposed, values appearing in data field types, checkbox, multi-select, single select, or percentage list data fields will appear in the audit log across the product to display changes to all field types where values have been created, updated, or deleted.

  • The update to the field value will be timestamped and the user associated with the change will auto-populate in the audit log.
  • 95% of search queries will return in under 0.5 seconds. Latency will not exceed one hour.
  • Auditing will only be supported on “simple” field types including date, text, number, lists, summable lists, etc.

Through the auditing service, program users can search for auditing details, primarily, consumed within the application. NOTE: Access to audit data is consistent with tenancy, row-level access policies, and custom field (i.e. column level) access policies configured for your program.

 

The following custom fields are included in the audit log:
