The change history is replacing the audit log

For information on the audit log, read Audit log and resource history.

Overview

This topic explains how to track changes made in LaunchDarkly. LaunchDarkly keeps a running log of changes made to feature flags and other resources in each environment.

View the change history

The unlimited change history is an Enterprise feature

The unlimited change history is available to customers on an Enterprise plan. For Foundation plans, the change history is restricted for account changes to the last 30 days of events, and is otherwise unlimited. For Developer plans, the change history is restricted to the last 30 days of events. To learn more, read about our pricing. To upgrade your plan, contact Sales.

The change history is a running tally of changes made to feature flags or other resources in a given environment.

To access the change history, click the clock icon from any page:

A portion of the flags list, with the "clock" icon highlighted.

The "Change history" dialog appears. It is automatically filtered based on the page from which you clicked the clock icon. For example, if you click the clock icon from the flags list, the change history is filtered to show changes for flags in your current project, in the environments that you have selected on the flags list:

The "Change history" dialog, automatically filtered by resource, project, and environment.

To filter the change history, use the "Filter by resource" section.

You can use the "Filter by resource" section to filter the results by any of the following resources:

Account

You can also filter for changes in particular projects, environments, and actions.

Click the link button in the "Filter by resource" section to copy a link to the current change history filter. You can share this with other members in your organization.

Actions recorded in the change history

In the LaunchDarkly UI, the change history displays a description of each action or set of actions, as entered by the member who performed them. If you use the REST API to review the change history, the API response also includes a list of the specific actions.

The actions displayed vary depending on the resource you're viewing and your app configuration. To learn more about the actions you may see in the change history, read Using actions.
