What it is for

Answering questions you cannot answer from memory. Who cancelled that booking. Who changed that price. Who removed somebody from the suppression list. Whether a former employee did anything on their last day.

Marketing, then Audiences, then Unsubscribes. People who have opted out, who will not be mailed again.

Why it matters beyond curiosity

If a customer asks who accessed their record or you have to report a data breach, a log of who did what is the difference between an answer and a guess. Data protection expects you to be able to say.

Some actions are logged deliberately

Taking somebody off the suppression list is recorded with who did it and when, because it undoes a person's stated wish. Actions with consequences leave a trail on purpose.

Reading it

Look for the record and the time rather than scrolling. You are usually confirming a specific suspicion rather than browsing.

Common questions

Can I edit or delete log entries?

No. That is the point. A log you can edit proves nothing.

Who can see the activity log?

It is behind a settings permission, so only people whose role allows it.

Team, then Roles & Access, then Roles. A role is a bundle of permissions you can hand to more than one person.

Does it record what customers do?

It records activity in your business account. Customer actions on their own bookings show on those bookings.
