Admin Audit Trail for Custom Form Definition Changes (Validation Logic, Calculations, Field Settings)
Workfront currently logs that a custom form was edited/resaved, but it does not provide granular details about what changed (for example, when custom field validation logic is removed/modified, when a calculated field formula changes, or when field configuration is updated). This makes it difficult for admins to investigate unexpected configuration changes, determine whether a change was accidental, and prevent recurrence—especially when changes appear across environments (e.g., sandbox and production) and require manual rebuild.
Please add an admin-level audit history for custom form and custom field configuration that records:
- What changed (before/after snapshot or diff of validation rules, formulas, field settings, and form layout)
- Who changed it (user)
- When it changed (timestamp)
- Where it changed (environment and object: form name, field name)
- Ability to report on these changes (e.g., via a journal/audit report) and optionally export the history
This would enable admins to quickly troubleshoot incidents like validation logic disappearing and provide an audit trail similar in spirit to field value tracking/journaling, but for configuration and admin changes.
