The change log helps you keep track of changes made in your Data Management Platform (DMP) account. For example, it shows newly created audiences, added categories, and recently changed permissions, descriptions, or fees.
Tip
For more information about DMP change log, see Use Change Log.
You can access the change log to review recent activity on your DMP account or verify who made specific updates. This helps you monitor account activity, oversee access control, or troubleshoot audience performance issues.
Note
The change log stores records from the past 3 months.
With the Change Log section of the Data Management Platform API, you can retrieve a list of change log records for a DMP account.
