SciNote’s audit trail records: - **Audit id** — a unique identifier for each audit record - **Timestamp** — when the action occurred - **User** — who performed the action. Actions performed automatically by the system are shown as **System user**. - **Object type** — the type of object affected (e.g., Project, Task, Experiment) - **Object id** — the unique identifier of the affected object - **Name** — the full path of the affected object (e.g., Project / Experiment / Task) - **Action** — the type of change (e.g., Object created, Object updated) - **Values** — a summary of the change. Click **Expand** to view field-level details, including old and new values. **Note:** Activities performed as part of inventory snapshots are recorded in the Audit Trail. ### Filtering the Audit Trail The Audit Trail includes filters to help you find specific records. You can filter by one or more of the following: - **Start date / End date** — limit results to a specific date range - **Object type** — filter by the type of object affected - **Object id** — enter an object id to find records for a specific object - **Parent type** — filter by the type of the parent object - **Parent id** — enter a parent id to narrow results. Select a **Parent type** first to enable this field. - **Parent name** — filter by the name of the parent object - **User** — filter by the user who performed the action - **Action** — filter by the type of action performed To apply filters: 1. Set one or more filter values. 2. Click the **Filter** button. To reset all filters, click **Clear filters**. ### How to export the Audit Trail: 1. Apply any filters you want to use (optional).
