How to find Audit trail of column changes in custom Dataverse Table

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 110

As subject indicates, could you please let me know where I can find the Audit trail? I have enabled auditing for certain columns in a custom table.

 

I'd like to connect Power BI/Automate to it for example & capture the changes.

 

Thanks.

    The table you are looking for is called Audit. Table documentation here including definitions for all readable and writeable columns.

    Could you please direct me to where I can find this 'Audit' table? I am looking in 'Tables' under 'Data' in PowerApps in the right environment. Thanks.

    Hi,

     

    Audti table is not listed under Data->Tables in power apps maker portal.

     

    However you can access the Audit table data from Power BI using following option -

    Open Power BI Desktop-> Get Data-> Power Platform->Common Data Service (legacy)->Provide URL and Login with yor credential->Select Audit table as show below

    thanks. do you know of a way to pull the records that have had a change to an (auditable) column in the Dataverse table into Power Automate for email notifications? The Power Automate will be triggered when the Dataflow has finished refreshing & the Dataflow will result in some changes to the auditable column. Thanks!!

    thanks a lot. do you know if it's possible to do same after a dataflow has refreshed trigger instead? the dataflow will update multiple records & i'd like the process to work step by step instead. is it possible to get a list of records in JSON, etc format where there has been change in the auditable column from automate? thanks a lot!

    Hello @fess,

     

    You can write an Custom Connector to achieve the same, in the custom connector you can use 

     

    RetrieveAttributeChangeHistoryRequest 

    to retrieve records accordingly 

     

     RetrieveAttributeChangeHistoryRequest attributeChangeHistoryRequest = new RetrieveAttributeChangeHistoryRequest
     {
     Target = new EntityReference(EntitySchemaName, RecordId),
     AttributeLogicalName = AttributeSchemaName
     };
