Activity
The Rule Repository records everything that happens to your sources, rules, versions, drafts and tests: who created or changed what, when, and how. Each record is an activity entry. Together they form an audit trail that answers questions such as "Who made this version live?", "When did this rule change, and what did it say before?" or "What did the AI agent do yesterday?". Activity entries are written by the repository itself and can never be edited.
Activity uses these parts of the repository:
The User Activity grid, opened by the User Activity tab at the top of the screen. Its columns:
| Column |
What it shows |
| ID |
The entry's number. Newer entries have higher numbers. |
| User |
Who did it. System when the repository did it on its own, for example when your application brought in a new source version. |
| Time Stamp |
When it happened, in your local time |
| Activity Type |
What happened, such as Rule Version Created, Rule Version Activated (made live), Rule Version Approval Requested or Test Batch Run |
| Object |
The most specific object the entry is about, as a link: the version rather than its rule |
| Description |
A sentence describing what happened. Hover over it to read all of it. |
The filters over the grid: All users..., Filter by time stamp..., All activity types... and Filter by description..., and Reset.
The User Activity dialog, which opens when you click an entry. Its title gives the entry's number and type. The line under it says when the entry was recorded, by whom (and through which AI agent, when an agent did it for a person), and names every object the entry is about, each a link. When a version replaced another one, the line names both. Its tabs:
- Description: the entry's full description.
- Depending on the type of entry, more tabs show the details: Changes for a changed name or description, with the old and new text side by side; the deleted rule as text, or the deleted source's fields, for a deletion; the source's fields before and after, for a new source version; a test's values before and after, for a changed test.
Seeing the History of One Object
Every object's history is one click away:
- In the Source Objects, Source Versions, Rules and Rule Versions grids, click the history icon on a row (its tooltip reads, for example, "View this rule's history").
- In any Source Object, Source Version, Rule or Rule Version dialog, open Show related... and select User Activity.
The User Activity grid opens filtered to that object. A rule's history includes the entries about its versions, and a source's history includes the entries about its versions and rules.
Finding an Entry
- Click the User Activity tab.
- Narrow the list:
- All users... to see what one person, agent or service did;
- Filter by time stamp... for a period, such as last week;
- All activity types... for one kind of event, such as Rule Version Activated;
- Filter by description... to search the descriptions for a name or a word.
- Click an entry to open it.
Reading an Entry
- Click the entry. The User Activity dialog opens on its Description tab.
- Read the line at the top for who did it, when, and to what. Click a name to open that object.
- Click the other tabs, when there are any, to see what changed.
What Is Recorded
- Sources: a new source or source version, a changed name or description, a source version made live or taken offline, a deletion.
- Rules and rule versions: a new rule or version, a changed name or description, a version made live or taken offline, approval requested, approved or declined (revoking an approval is recorded as declined), a deletion.
- Drafts: created, changed, turned into a version, deleted.
- Tests: created, changed, deleted, a batch run, and the tests an AI agent runs through the MCP server (when your application records them).
A deletion removes the entries about what it deleted, but the deletion itself is always recorded, with the deleted object's definition so you can still see what was removed.
Some entries may be hidden from you. If you cannot see drafts, tests or live evaluations, you also do not see the activity entries about them.
