The audit trail lets Administrators track who did what and when across a Displayr account — creating, opening, moving, renaming, and deleting documents and folders; downloading document QPacks; uploading, overwriting, and downloading Cloud Drive files and Office documents; adding and removing users; and changing user group or folder, document, and page permissions. Use it to investigate account activity, confirm who made a specific change, or keep a record for compliance.
Requirements
- Your account must be a member of the Administrator user group.
Method
- Log in to your Displayr account.
- From the Documents page, select the initials icon in the top right corner of the page.

- Input the desired date and time range you wish to audit in the FROM (UTC): and TO (UTC): fields.
- Click on the document icon on the right to download a CSV file of the results. You can open the file in Excel or another spreadsheet application.
