Release activity logs

This topic describes the activity log in Digital.ai Release, which records all events occurring in a release, providing a detailed audit trail of user actions with corresponding dates and times.

The Activity logs page is available across various sections, such as templates, workflow templates, releases, workflow executions, delivery patterns, deliveries, and triggers. The layout remains mostly consistent across these areas, with subtle differences depending on the context.

Release View​

Template View​

To access the Activity logs page, open a release or template, select the release flow, and click Activity logs under the INSIGHTS section. You can perform the following actions:

  • View the activity logs table, which lists events with the following fields:

    • Performed by: Indicates the user type that executed the action.
    • Activity: Describes specific log messages, such as task creation or updates like failed, completed, or skipped activities.

      Note:Log messages are trimmed if they are too long, but can be expanded using a Show more link. For specific activities like failed, completed, or skipped, a badge is displayed to make them stand out.

    • Target: Specifies the activity type, showing whether the log relates to a release, phase, or task.

      Note: If a task ID is present, it links directly to the task. When no task ID is available (such as for attachments), an alternative message appears.

    • Time: Shows when the activity occurred (date and time). You can toggle the time column between ascending and descending order using the arrow.

  • Enable the Highlight important toggle to easily identify key events. Rows for significant event types—such as completed deliveries, failed tasks, or release completions—are highlighted. The system highlights the following event types:

      DELIVERY_COMPLETED
      ITEM_COMPLETED
      ITEM_COMPLETED_MANUALLY
      ITEM_DESCOPED
      ITEM_REMOVED
      ITEM_RESCOPED
      ITEM_RESET
      ITEM_RESET_MANUALLY
      ITEM_SKIPPED
      ITEM_TRANSITION_APPROVED
      PHASE_STARTED
      RELEASE_ABORTED
      RELEASE_COMPLETED
      RELEASE_FLAG_COMMENT_UPDATED
      RELEASE_FLAG_STATUS_UPDATED
      RELEASE_STARTED
      STAGE_COMPLETED
      STAGE_REMOVED
      STAGE_STARTED
      TASK_ABORT_SCRIPT_COMPLETED
      TASK_ABORT_SCRIPT_STARTED
      TASK_DELETED
      TASK_FAILED
      TASK_FLAG_COMMENT_UPDATED
      TASK_FLAG_STATUS_UPDATED
      TASK_RECOVERED
      TASK_RECOVERY_STARTED
      TASK_SKIPPED
      TASK_SKIPPED_IN_ADVANCE
      TRANSITION_EXECUTED_AUTOMATICALLY
      TRANSITION_EXECUTED_MANUALLY
      WORKFLOW_EXECUTION_ABORTED
      WORKFLOW_EXECUTION_COMPLETED
      WORKFLOW_EXECUTION_STARTED

    Note: Additionally, any activity you select updates the URL. This means that when you refresh the page or return later, your filters stay applied. These selections are saved in your local storage.

  • By default, all activities are displayed with the most recent entries at the top, eliminating the need to manually select the Category filter.

  • Key actions are highlighted for easier identification, with an Important toggle that flags significant changes such as flagged tasks, deleted or skipped task, started phase, release or workflow, etc.

  • Color-coded tags (pills) help differentiate between completed, failed, and skipped items.

  • Use the search box in the top-right corner to filter logs by user, activity type, or log ID. For example, entering a release admin shows relevant logs. Release admin actions like task comments are grouped under Release Administrator.

  • Click the filter icon at the top-right corner to open the filter drawer. You can filter by target (release, task, or user), time, and more. The number of applied filters is displayed both in the filter button badge and in the page subheader.

You can directly access the activity log from the task drawer context menu.

  • To access the Activity logs page, open a release or template and select VIEW > FLOW from the sidebar.
