Article Summary

Store Logs will track entries for the past 365 days—anything further back cannot be accessed.

System Log

The System Log tracks events that have taken place on your storefront, including orders, payment transactions, shipping quote requests, and newsletter sign-ups.

Example store logs

Each system log entry includes a summary describing the nature of the event, when it happened, its severity, the type, and which module reported the event. Click the + to expand a log entry for additional information from the reporting module. This data can be helpful when identifying and troubleshooting errors or issues with your store.

Staff Action Log

The Staff Action Log records general information about changes made in the control panel, including template file updates, product imports, changes to payment methods, and page edits. Each log entry lists the User, their IP address, the action, and the date and time it was performed.

Example staff action logs

The data recorded in the Staff Action Log is for general reference and doesn't include specifics about the event. For example, updating a category will trigger a Staff Action Log entry, but what aspect of the category was changed is not recorded.

Filter staff action events by User using the drop-down list and clicking Search. All actions the Store Owner does will be listed under the admin role.

Staff Action Logs

Search all events in the Staff Action Log using the Filter By Action text field, then click Search. You can search by order ID, category or product name, theme name, or any terms used under the Action column. It also supports partial words, such as entering "Theme" to see whenever theme variations were applied to the storefront.
