# Audit logs

> Track every change in your workspace — who did what, when, and to which entity.

Audit logs give you a complete record of every create, update, and delete action in your workspace. Useful for compliance, troubleshooting, or simply understanding what changed and when.

## What's tracked

Every action on notes, attachments, and collections is logged with:

* **Who** performed the action
* **What** they did (created, updated, or deleted)
* **Which entity** was affected
* **When** it happened
* **What changed** — field-by-field before and after values

Tracked entity types:

| Entity type                              | Actions tracked        |
| ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------- |
| Collection                               | Create, update, delete |
| Artifact (notes, attachments, protocols) | Create, update, delete |

## Viewing audit logs

Click **Audit log** in the sidebar (near the bottom, just above Trash), or navigate directly to [app.bowerlabs.ai/audit](https://app.bowerlabs.ai/audit).

Each entry shows a human-readable description — for example, "Jane Doe updated Note 'Sample batch 14'." Expand any entry to see the specific fields that changed, with before and after values.

<Info>
  Bulk operations performed within a few seconds are grouped together, with a count badge showing how many items were affected.

## Filtering

Use the filter controls at the top of the page to narrow results:

* **Entity type** — Show only collections or only artifacts
* **Action** — Show only creates, updates, or deletes
* **User** — Show only changes made by a specific workspace member
* **Date range** — Use presets (last 7, 30, or 90 days) or set custom start and end dates
* **Search** — Filter by entity name or description

Filters combine — you can search for all artifacts deleted by a specific user in the last 30 days.

## Exporting to CSV

Click **Export CSV** in the top right to download the current filtered view as a CSV file. The export respects whatever filters you have active, so narrow your view first if you only need a subset.

The downloaded file is named `audit-logs-{timestamp}.csv`.

## What's shown in change details

When you expand an audit log entry, you see exactly what changed:

* **Name, title** — The entity's display name
* **Content** — Shows "Content was edited" (full diffs are not displayed for privacy)
* **Tags** — Added tags shown with a plus, removed tags shown with strikethrough
* **File metadata** — File name, size, type, dimensions, duration
* **Parent collection** — When a note is moved between collections
* **Processing status** — When text extraction or transcription status changes
