Sorry if this has already been requested, I feel like it should have been by now but don’t see anything out there just yet.

I have several clients who have a great need to see WHO made changes to the record. Because the change is made via API, the revision history in Airtable is not accurate.

Is there any other way to see who/when changes were made to a record in NL? Would be nice to have it similar to Airtable where it’s a toggle between comments and record revision history.

Adding record comments via workflow may be a workaround option, but definitely not scalable nor does it allow for granularity on the field level changes.

Thanks for the suggestion @Brandi_Bullock

This is definitely on our radar, it would be great to have it in Noloco, for all data sources

Yup! We’re hurting on this too - team members breaking stuff or not performing duties correctly and I can’t hold them accountable without an audit log - not good for information systems - short-sighted

Hi @darragh - This would be a great functionality to add - would benefit all users.

I have the same issue as @Brandi_Bullock. The AirTable record revision history states, ‘You edited via API (using Noloco integration),’ so it is missing the user details needed from an Audit perspective.

As you say, it would be even better if it was available in NoLoCo.

</div>

One way to workaround this and to keep the history is to have a field called `Updated by text` and then have a workflow in Noloco that runs every time a record is updated.

Then you would add the name of the Noloco user who updated the record to it so you would see the existing Airtable activity log, plus the value change to that new user’s name / email.

Hi @darragh

I am looking to implement this, but I am hitting a roadblock. I’m not doing something very basic correctly, and I can’t identify it.

I have set up the new ‘updated by text’ field in AirTable (single-line test) and run a manual sync.

I created the workflow to run when a record is updated and selected all relevant fields to watch.

I then set the Action to update a record, but when I search for the newly created field, I don’t see it; only numeric and formula fields are selectable.

Any quick pointers would be appreciated.

While this is a good workaround for records with infrequent updates, on records that are constantly getting updated, this would be HEAVY in workflow usage and challenging to pinpoint the changes made.

+1 here. Seeing a full history, rather than the option for most recent history workaround suggested would be necessary.

+1 here either in Noloco, in Airtable or both. Client asked for this yesterday as all changes made in their system shows as it’s changed by me because it’s connected to the Noloco API via me 🙂

Great idea on workaround though @darragh - that’s better than the one I was thinking of, so thank you!

For all it is worth, here, we would also love to have access to users’ login information (time and date). And I do not mean “last active” in the user table.

Hi Darragh,

A few years later. Any updates on this feature availability?

Great news @tristencrow@Brandi_Bullock@Kieran@Tobias and everyone else.

We have just released record-hisotry in beta, and you’ve all automatically been added.

You can also view the history of the table, broken down by user and date.

I think I’d like to see it as a tab on the comments - similar to how Airtable does it! So now it’s Comment/Note then add History… (would be great to also add visibility permissions to that tab as well - ie only builders, only managers, only internal etc.)

For sure, we expected this answer, but handling permissions, visibility and others is pretty complicated, and we wanted to get it into your hands first.

From the data table, you can see your comments and your activity, much like you describe in Airtable
