Logging project activity

When you create a project, you can select to log project activity. Logging project activity, tracks detailed project activity and creates a full activities log, which can be downloaded to view. If you don't select this option during project creation, you can log project activity after the project was created.

You must have Admin role in a project to log project activity and to download the activities log for a full view of the accumulated change logs.

The following project activity is logged:

  • Adding or deleting data assets (of type CSV, XSL and TXT)
  • Adding, deleting or updating connections (local and global)
  • Adding data assets added to the project from a catalog
  • Adding or deleting Data Refinery flows
  • Adding or deleting SPSS models
  • Adding or deleting notebooks
  • Adding or deleting environment runtime definitions
  • Adding or deleting notebook or Data Refinery jobs (both on-demand and scheduled jobs)
  • Updating the project description from the Settings page of the project
  • Adding or deleting project collaborators
  • Adding or changing the role of project collaborators

When users open a project that logs project activity, a notification is displayed stating that project administrators can generate and download activity logs.

  1. On the Manage tab of your project, select the General page.
  2. In the Controls section, click the download Activity log button.
  3. You can provide a name and optionally select a date for the log file.
