I have noticed on log history that one user has successfully logged in. I have full admin account, can I check his activity since last log in ?
Hi bzgryzek,
Yes, to a degree. If you have the proper privileges then you can export a Sheet Access Report csv file specific to a particular user via the Account Administration panel.
It will not detail what the user has done within a sheet, however. You would still need to access the Activity log for the accessed sheet and filter by user.
Many thanks, that was I thought. It would be great to have a look on activity log per user for specific period of time requested. I will submit Product Enhancement Request. thanks.
@bzgryzek,
If you want to do a history report by user, the only way to currently do this is with the API. Even still, it may not provide you with all of the changes by user (things like formatting, etc), but I do know from experience that it is possible to do. I find it is better to pull large data out of SS for processing rather than relying on the internal formulas and links.

I'm trying to figure out a way using the API to collect Dashboard Views / Sheet Views. Do you have an example you can share with me on how to achieve this?
Hi @Jeff Zumaris
There is a premium add-on, Event Reporting that can provide you with much more information.
Is that an option?

I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

@Andrée Starå Unfortunately, no this does not help, I've seen this already. Looking more for the working code behind the example.
@Jeff Zumaris
Ok. I hope that Brad has a method that would work instead.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
