Activity Log

Last updated: July 22, 2026

The Activity Log provides a comprehensive audit trail of all changes made to people, projects, and associated records in Bridgit. It automatically tracks who made changes, when they occurred, and what specific data was modified - giving you full visibility into the history of your workforce and project planning activities.

Key capabilities:

  • View a chronological history of all people and project changes across your entire account

  • See which user made each change and when it occurred

  • Track modifications to assignments, dates, custom fields, and more

  • Filter activity by user, project name, or activity type

  • Toggle integration events on or off to isolate user activity

Eligibility/Prerequisites

Eligibility / Prerequisites

Activity Log is available to all users, but what you can view depends on your permissions:

  • View People: Access to People Profile Activity Logs

  • View Projects: Access to Project Activity Logs

  • Users can only view activity logs for records they have permission to access

Note: Only users with permissions to view Private and Financial fields will have that data visible in the Activity Log.

Activity Log automatically captures changes made through:

  • Manual edits in Bridgit

  • Bulk imports

  • Integration syncs

  • API updates

How to Use

Accessing the Activity Log

The Activity Log is a single, consolidated view of every change made across your Bridgit account — people and project events in one unified, chronological feed.

  1. Navigate to Settings (gear icon) in the top navigation bar

  2. Select the Activity Log tab

Note: Non-admin users can access the Activity Log tab in Settings. Permissions are fully respected - you will only see records your role allows you to view.

Filtering and Feed Settings

Filters and the Feed Settings are located on the left side panel within the Activity Log.

  • Filter by activity types: Narrow the log to a specific activity type (e.g., "added role")

  • Filter by user: Focus the log to activity from a specific person.

  • Filter by project: Search by project name to focus on updates to a specific project.

  • User events: Use Feed Settings to toggle user-generated changes on or off.

  • Integration events: Use Feed Settings to toggle integration-triggered events on or off, making it easier to isolate what your team is doing versus what your integration is updating.

Understanding Activity Entries

Each activity entry displays:

  • User: Who made the change (full name)

  • Date and Time: When the change occurred

  • Change Type: What was modified (e.g., "Updated allocation," "Added role," "Modified custom field")

  • Details: Specific information about the change

Viewing Change Details

To see more information about a specific change:

  1. Locate the activity entry in the log

  2. Click the arrow or entry itself to expand

  3. Review the detailed breakdown showing:

    • Field name that was changed

    • Previous value

    • New value

    • Any related context (like project name or role title)

Common Workflows

Auditing allocation changes: When you need to understand who adjusted someone's assignment dates or percentages, expand the relevant activity entry to see the before and after values and identify who made the change.

Tracking project modifications: Review the Activity Log on a project's profile to understand recent changes to dates, roles, or team assignments.

Investigating discrepancies: If you notice unexpected data in a profile or project, check the Activity Log to trace when the change occurred and who made it, helping you quickly resolve data questions.

Understanding integration impacts: After a data sync from your ERP, CRM, or HRIS, review the Activity Log to see which fields were updated by the integration and verify the changes are accurate.

Reviewing account-wide activity: Use the Activity Log in Settings to get a full picture of everything happening across your account in one place, without clicking through individual people and projects.

Common Questions

Q: Who can access the Activity Log?

All users can access the Activity Log from the Settings tab. Permissions are fully respected — users only see records their role allows them to view. Non-admin users will only see the Activity Log tab within Settings.

Q: How long does Bridgit retain activity log data?

Activity logs are retained indefinitely in Bridgit. All historical changes remain accessible as long as the person or project exists in your account.

Q: Why don't I see some changes in the Activity Log?

Activity Log only appears for records you have permission to view. If you do not have access to certain data such as Financial or Private Fields, you will not see the activity logs for those updates.

Q: What types of changes are tracked in the Activity Log?

Activity Log captures changes to all people and project fields, including roles, assignments, allocation percentage, dates, custom fields, certifications, time off, notes, and status changes. System-generated changes (like automatic utilization calculations) are not logged.

Q: Can I see who viewed a profile, or only who edited it?

Activity Log only tracks edits and changes. Profile views are not recorded.

Q: How do I know if a change came from an integration vs. a manual edit?

Changes made through integrations will display the name of the service account as the user who made the change, rather than an individual person's name.

Q: How do I review edits made by a specific user?

In the Activity Log, use the filters on the left to narrow results by user. You can also filter by Project and Activity Type.
