The audit shows the events recorded for an entity. Events explain what happened in Bold to synchronize modules, notifications, external notifications and automations. Both help you investigate issues, review integrations and protect traceability.

Audit

The audit lets you review a business entity’s event history. The view does not calculate a difference between previous and subsequent values. Use the sequence and content of events to reconstruct what happened to the entity you are viewing.

Events

An event communicates that something happened. It can feed internal projections, notifications, external notifications or automations. Not all changes generate the same type of public event. Review the developer reference for external integrations.

Relationship with notifications and external notifications

Notifications use events to alert you inside the application or by email. External notifications send events to external systems. Retain the data needed to investigate failed deliveries or discrepancies.

Relationship with automations

Event-triggered automations create tasks when the selected event and its condition match. Before enabling a critical automation, verify:
  • which event triggers it;
  • which event version it uses;
  • which condition filters runs;
  • which permissions the automation has;
  • who will review the generated tasks.

Good practices

  • Use individual user accounts to maintain traceability.
  • Avoid sharing integration keys across different integrations.
  • Review the audit before correcting stock or orders manually.
  • Document event-triggered automations that affect critical processes.
  • Maintain external notifications with destinations you can monitor and controlled retries.
