About Shop Logs


Shop Logs document activity within your CommentSold account. This includes the occurrence of an action, the time the action occurred, which team took that action, and what was impacted (e.g., an order, a custom record, a setting, etc.). 

With Shop Logs, shops can audit changes in their system, troubleshoot issues, and review historical timelines of specific features (i.e., view changes made to a webstore that has led to its current state).

How Shop Logs Benefit Your Shop
