History on Background Scripts

xiaix · ‎02-21-2017

Any way to get a history on what Background Scrips were ran and by whom? We need this for audit reasons.

I'm not aware of anywhere in the system where it's stored in "one easy place" to look at.

But consider this - every time a background script is run, it creates a Log entry on System Logs > All with a source of "ScriptBackgroundCheck". So that's something that you could look into a bit further. You can't report directly on this table [syslog] but maybe there could be another customization that you could perform every time a background script is run.

In script execution history we can check the previous scripts.

Hi xiaix,

On Madrid version I found this table: Script Execution Histories [sys_script_execution_history_list].

A detailed record is created each time a backgroud is executed.

Kind regard,

Mani

Realise this is old, but you can find the script execution log under sys_script_execution_history.list

This includes who and what was run.
