Comment history audit

Learn how the Comment history audit records every comment, reply, edit, deletion, and label change to provide a complete audit trail of review activity.

Written by Gemma

The Comment history audit provides a complete audit trail of comment activity on a proof.

It records when comments and replies are created, edited, deleted, and labeled, giving Enterprise teams a detailed history of review activity for compliance, governance, troubleshooting, and reporting.

Unlike the Comment status audit, which only tracks changes to comment status, the Comment history audit records the complete lifecycle of every comment.

Available on: Enterprise.
