Activity timeline
The Activity Timeline is a per-record panel that merges a record's change history with its comments into one chronological view, newest first and grouped by date. It is the single place to see what happened to one record — who changed a field, who left a note — without leaving the record you are looking at.
The timeline is a slide-over side panel, not a standalone page. You open it from the record itself, and it shows only the activity for that one record.
What the timeline shows
The timeline opens on All, which interleaves two kinds of activity in time order: changes and comments. Three tabs let you narrow the view.
| Tab | Shows |
|---|---|
| All | Changes and comments together. |
| Comments | Comments only. |
| History | Changes only. |
Every entry, whichever tab you are on, shows the author and the timestamp alongside its content. What sits in the content area depends on the entry type:
- A change shows what was modified — the before-and-after diff of the affected fields, or a snapshot of the record at that point. In a deletion snapshot, each referenced record appears as Name (#Id) (for example,
Location: MW-02 (#2)); the#Idis the internal identifier kept so the entry can be traced to the exact referenced record even if its name later changes. See Audit Log for more. - A comment shows the comment body, its priority chip, and indicators for any mentions and replies, along with whether the comment has been edited or deleted.
Deleted comments are masked: their author and text are hidden for everyone except Administrators, who still see the original content.
Open the timeline
You reach the timeline from a record, not from the navigation menu:
- Open a record's list, or its detail page.
- From a list, select the Activity action on the row. From a detail page, open the timeline panel. You can also reach it by selecting a row in the Audit Log or an entry in the dashboard's Recent activity feed.
- The panel slides in with the All tab selected. Switch to Comments or History to filter, and scroll to read older activity.
When the timeline is opened for a record that still exists, a Go to page control jumps to that record. A deleted record keeps its timeline — its history, including the deletion, remains readable — but has no page to open, so Go to page does not appear.
How it fits together
The timeline is the per-record lens on the same activity the Activity Hub overview presents across many records at once. Where the Hub answers "what changed across my work," the timeline answers "what happened to this record."
Its two tabs draw on the two activity sources the rest of this section documents in full:
| Tab | Mirrors | Where to read more |
|---|---|---|
| History | A record's change history | Audit log |
| Comments | A record's comments | Comments |
You see a record's timeline only when you can access that record — its Site or Project scope governs the timeline the same way it governs the record. Administrators see every record's timeline.
The timeline is anchored to a single aggregate. It shows that record's own changes and comments — not those of related records elsewhere in your work.
