Activity Reports

Overview

The activity reports centralizes the history of all processes executed in the PIM: imports, exports, bulk edits, translations, indexing, image transformations, etc.

It answers key day-to-day questions: which process was launched, by whom, when, and with what result?

It is an essential monitoring and traceability tool to track your team’s activity, retrieve generated files, and quickly diagnose errors.

🚧

Limitations

  • The activity report is view-only: it is not possible to cancel or relaunch a process from this interface.
  • There is no export function for the report itself (neither CSV nor dedicated public API). Very old processes may be archived: their associated files are then no longer downloadable.
  • To view the history of direct changes on a record (attribute change, link, workflow...), use the Versions page of the relevant record (dedicated product feature on the product record).

Accessing the activity report

To access the Activity Report page, click the corresponding icon in the left-hand navigation bar of the PIM.

The Activity Report page is where you can:

  • View the progress of your activities and usage and administration processes,
  • Download all import and export files performed from advanced search or from data flows.
