History of changes to host rules and properties
It would be very useful to have a history of the changes made with their dates in the properties of the hosts and in the rules.
For example, there are rules that have been deactivated and we do not know since what date. If this history of changes existed, it would be possible to know.

Niklas Pulina AdminHi Gonzalo Deniz, thanks a lot for your suggestion.
Our audit log already seems to cover plenty of the functionality you are asking for. Could you please specify which additional functionality you'd want us to implement? Would you prefer logged changes to be displayed directly in the rule configuration GUI? Or are other aspects more important to you?
Many thanks in advance! -

GonzaloIt would be desirable that changes related to a rule are displayed at the bottom as a small log. This way you could see, for example, a history of the different threshold values that have been configured in a rule.

Robert SanderYou can enable git for tracking changes in the checkmk configuration.

Lars SörensenAnyone who has ever searched the GIT or audit log for all changes to a particular rule will understand why customers want a more user-friendly and faster solution.
Perhaps a "History" icon next to the "Edit" and "Delete" icons in front of each rule, which refers to the audit log with the set object filter, would be a simple interim solution to implement this. This however would first require a real performance boost for the audit log.
