Analytics Change Log Proposal for Configs

Summary

CommunityOne Builders Help discusses adding a changelog for analytics to record what changed in configuration updates. The thread reviews current last_updated timestamps, notes they only show that a field changed not what changed, and explores storing more data or using the bot's communityone-setup channel records. This matters to maintainers for clearer audit trails and troubleshooting.

I am gonna keep this open to see if any one wants the same thing, but this is probably gonna be at the back burner for sometimes ๐Ÿ™‚

At the very least we can show when the last config update was done rn

happybeacon-37 OP

wait how?

sharpquartz-72

with the last_updated timestamps we store in the db

happybeacon-37 OP

but we dont know "what" was changed, only that the entire field is changed

happybeacon-37 OP

we need a different db for this no?

sharpquartz-72

Yeah, we would need to store more data. The bot already does this to some extent. If you have the communityone-setup channel (the bot attempts creating it when you update settings) then the bot will keep a record of the settings there.
