The Admin Section gives you access to manage a lot of different components that are used throughout the system. Sometimes changes can be made to some of these components and it may not always be apparent as to who exactly made those changes. The Admin Timeline keeps an audit log for every component managed within the Admin section and allows you to see a detailed record of all the changes or updates made to these areas of the platform. With this feature, you can see exactly what change was made, who it was made by, and when it happened. This will give you a bird’s eye view of the changes made to the different components of the Admin section.
