History log

The History log is one of the tabs located in the bottom section of the marker UI.

Its purpose is to provide a chronological overview of all actions and contributions related to a specific marker. It records both:

  • User-generated content (such as comments or images)
  • System-recorded actions (such as state changes or property updates)

This allows project members to track what has happened to a marker over time.

History log structure

The history log is displayed as a list of event entries, each represented by a separate box.

At the top of the section, there is a More details switch, which changes how much information is displayed.

Display modes

1. Basic view (More details OFF)

When the More details switch is turned off, the history log displays only user-created events added through the Add event function in the marker UI.

Each entry contains:

  • User – the member who created the event
  • Content – the event content (text or image)

This mode provides a simplified view focused only on manual contributions.

2. Detailed view (More details ON)

When the More details switch is turned on, the history log displays all recorded events, including both user actions and system changes.

Each entry contains:

1. Event

Describes what action occurred. Examples include:

  • Property updated
  • State changed
  • marker assigned
  • Image added
  • Comment added

2. User

Indicates which user performed the action. This may include any user who has been a member of the project at the time of the action.

3. Date / time

Displays the exact time when the event occurred.

4. Additional information

Provides extra details specific to the event type. For example:

  • For a state change – the previous and new state
  • For an assignment – the user to whom the marker was assigned
  • For property updates – the changed values
  • For user-created events – the comment text or attached image

Delete own contribution

Users may be able to remove their own contributions from the history log, depending on their role permissions.

To delete a contribution:

  1. Make sure the More details switch is turned OFF
  2. Locate your contribution in the history log
  3. Click the Delete option associated with the entry

The contribution will be removed from the history log.
