History logging for attributes

If history logging is enabled for an attribute, each change type event triggers a specific message to be logged in the attribute's history log.

History log maintains history data related to user login, user access, and changes to attributes, and elements.

If you have enabled history logging for an attribute, you can view the attribute's history log by clicking the history icon. History log can be used to track the changes made to an attribute, to configure notifications based on specific changes, or to decide whether an attribute's value should be rolled back to a previous value using the rollback icon.

The following table lists the messages logged for an attribute, for each change type event:

Table 1. Log messages for the change type events
