Jira Assets (Insight) - logs or history for changes made on objects configuration

[Simon Sahli]

Hey Atlassian community,

we are using Assets (former Insight) for our customer database with many different objects.
It seems that somebody made some changes on objects or attributes configuration which have caused some troubles.
I would like to find out who and what was exactly done, so I am looking for a "log" or "history" function that shows me changes made on the objects and their attributes.
I haven´t found anything in the documentation or by clicking around...

Do you know if it is possible to see who and what has been changed for Asset objects and attributes?
If yes, how?

And is there any difference between Jira Server (currently using) or Jira Cloud (migration soon)?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Simon

There is no audit trail or history for changes made to a schema or object type configuration including adding/removing attributes or adjusting attribute settings.

Basically, you should have very few users with "Object Type Manager" or "Object Schema Manager" roles because their actions have to be trusted.

Thanks @PD Sheehan for confirming that there is no audit trail nor history for Asset objects!

Do you know if there is anything planned to add this kind of functionality for the Assets? Like an open feature request at Atlassian?

I think it could be a valuable thing to for troubleshooting and improve the way of working within the Assets.

And yes I thought the same, I will limit the change right to a few people by limiting the manager role for the different objects/schemas.

I'm not aware of nor have I attempted to search for such feature requests.

So I don't know either way.

I can imagine them implementing some limited amount of logging through the Audit Log that's available from the System configuration area. For all I know that's already in place in more recent versions of Jira (I'm still on LTS 8.20.x)

What about the AO_8542F1_IFJ_OBJ_HIST table in the Jira database?
