The Operation History page in Operation Center records UI actions performed in your workspace — who did what, and when. Use it to investigate incidents and verify past operations.
Limitations
Recorded content
Only operations within the current workspace are recorded. For the complete list of supported operations, refer to the Operation History page in the console.
Records are retained for 30 days. For longer retention, use ActionTrail, which retains DataWorks event logs for up to 90 days.
Only UI operations are recorded. OpenAPI calls are not recorded on this page.

Extended audit capabilities
Longer retention and API coverage: ActionTrail retains DataWorks event logs for up to 90 days. If you connect your compute engine to ActionTrail, you can also view all execution records from that engine associated with your Alibaba Cloud account.
Custom operation validation: To implement custom validation logic for operations, use an extension. Extension points in Operation Center trigger the extension to perform validation. For more information, see Example: Trigger event validation in Operation Center.
