Activity Log ​
Activity Log answers who changed what, and when. It includes actions taken while impersonating a client, so work done on a customer's behalf is attributed to the administrator who did it.
Overview ​
URL: /admin/activity-logs
Find it under Logs > Activity Log in the sidebar.
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Time | When the action happened. |
| Actor | Who did it. |
| Event | What kind of change it was, for example created, updated, or deleted. |
| Object | What was changed. |
| Description | The detail of the change. |
| Reseller | The reseller the change belongs to, when it applies to one. |
Activity Log or Logs? ​
The two pages answer different questions and it is worth keeping them apart:
- Activity Log is about people. Someone changed a setting, created an account, or deleted a domain.
- Logs is about the server. An action ran, a service wrote to its log file, a certificate was requested.
If you are investigating "why did this setting change", start here. If you are investigating "why did this action fail", start in Logs.
Impersonation ​
When an administrator signs in to a client account to help with something, the entries stay attributed to the administrator. The client's own record does not absorb changes an administrator made.
