Trustgrid records information about changes users make to all configuration. This can be helpful when troubleshooting recent changes.

Configuration changes for the entire organization are available by navigating to Operations > Changes.

Configuration changes table showing recent changes across the organization

Viewing configuration changes requires audits::read:config permissions.

The following information is shown for each change:

Field Name	Description
Date	When the change was made
IP	The IP address from which the change originated
Event	The type of change (delete/create/change/action). Note that for some entities where the entire entity is re-sent to the API, a change may show `create` instead of `change`.
Details	Information about the change. Typically includes the item’s ID and a brief summary of the changes made.
User Name	The user who made the change
Item Type	The type of item changed. When a link is available, clicking the item type navigates to the changed item in the portal.

For the results that support linking to the item that generated the audit, there will be an external link to navigate to it.

Configuration changes are stored for 90 days.

Configuration changes can also be viewed at a narrower scope:

Node Changes — History > Changes on a node
Cluster Changes — Changes on a cluster
Domain Changes — Changes on the domain

Searching for Changes

Search Bar

The search bar at the top of the table performs a full text search across Event, Item, IP, User Name, Item ID, and Item Type fields. Type a search term and press Enter to filter the results. Searches match the full value of a field or substrings up to 16 characters.

Date Range

The date range selector is always visible above the changes table, showing the currently active time window. The default range is Last 4w. Click the date range button to change the range. The selector supports both relative ranges (e.g., Last 2h, Last 1w) and absolute date/time ranges.

To remove the time filter entirely, click Clear inside the date range picker. This shows all available changes regardless of when they occurred.

Timezone

Use the UTC/Local toggle on the date range selector to switch between UTC and your local timezone. This affects all timestamps displayed in the table. CSV exports are always in UTC.

Field Name	Description
Events	Filter by change type (e.g., create, change, delete, action)
Item Types	Filter by the type of item that was changed (e.g., Node, Cluster, Domain)
IPs	Filter by the originating IP address
