Changes
The Changes page is the primary compliance audit trail. It logs every create, update, and delete action performed on system resources. This append-only log cannot be modified or deleted, providing the evidence trail required for SOC2 and ISO 27001 compliance reporting.

Gotchas
- This log is append-only and cannot be modified or deleted, even by the owner account.
- Change audit records are retained indefinitely and cannot be purged, even by the owner account. This provides the continuous, tamper-evident history required for SOC2 CC7.2 and ISO 27001 A.12.4.1.
- The Changes column summarizes which fields changed but does not display before/after values inline. Full field-level diffs are available by clicking the change record or via the API detail endpoint.
- System-initiated changes (e.g., scheduled tasks) show "System" instead of a username.
