Compliance Center

​

What is the Compliance Center?

The** Compliance Center** provides a comprehensive history of changes made to your workspace objects. This feature allows you to track modifications, understand who made them, when they occurred, and on which Branch. This detailed tracking offers valuable insights for collaboration, auditing, and understanding the evolution of your project. The Compliance Center records changes to the following workspace elements:

• Database tables and schema
• API groups
• API endpoints
• Addons
• Custom functions
• Background tasks

Important Note: Changes to individual records within your database are not tracked by the Compliance Center. By providing a clear and accessible log of workspace modifications, the Compliance Center enhances team transparency and simplifies the process of understanding project history. This can be particularly useful for:

• Collaboration: Easily identify when and by whom specific changes were implemented.
• Auditing: Maintain a record of modifications for internal reviews or compliance requirements.
• Troubleshooting: Understand recent changes that may have impacted functionality.
• Onboarding: Quickly bring new team members up to speed on the project’s development.

The Compliance Center is a valuable tool for maintaining a well-documented and understandable development process within your Xano workspaces.

• ID - the unique ID of a specific change.
• Object - the Workspace Object that was changed.
• Branch - which Branch the change occurred on.
• Author - the team member that made that change.
• Date - the time the change occurred.

Activity Logs

Activity Logs provide an aggregated dashboard of all admin related activity across the workspace.

​

Middleware Reporting

Middlware Reporting allows you to audit your APIs, functions, and tasks to ensure that they are all using the expected middleware. From this view, you can also review when APIs have customized middleware, meaning they have been given different settings than what is applied at the parent object level.

​

Version History

Version History is an aggregated dashboard of all schema changes across tables, APIs, functions, addons, and tasks. You can click on any one of these items and immediately navigate to the item that was changed to review further as necessary.

​

Trigger Reporting

Similar to Middleware Reporting, Trigger Reporting allows you to audit and verify triggers. You can review both database triggers and workspace triggers.
