Viewing the audit log
The audit log lists administration events related to apps (also knowns as add-ons or plugins) that have occurred in the system in a given time frame. Among other information, this log reports when an app is installed, disabled, licensed, or uninstalled.
By default, the audit log purges event records after 90 days. You can modify the default purge policy if desired.
You can view app administration events through the Audit log page or by RSS feed. The RSS feed gives you flexibility in how you monitor events.
