how to check when and who activated a plugin

[eashwar]

Hello,

I am trying to identify a column field which says who and when a plugin was activated. I see that all plugins updated by shows as logged in user.

Do anyone have some insight ?

Thank you,

I had to put in an incident to ServiceNow for this info when someone asked and I seam to remember that they could only give me an estimate I think.

Did you get any answer for this from ServiceNow?

You need to raise a ticket with HI. They would have a change request in place for activation of Configuration Automation or associated Puppet/Chef activation.

There should be a plugin activation that can detect the plugins being activated and by that, it can be checked. Most of the plugins do not work if the plugins are not attached and compatible with the programme. That is why it is tough to detect them. Plugins UAE can be compatible as you can check that also on the plugin activation mode.

I just stumbled upon a way to see who initiated the plugin activation directly in ServiceNow.

Go to System logs-All and run a filter for the date the plug in was activated then in the Message field search for *AJAXPluginManagerWorker and see who initiated the plugin activation.

Hope this helps others viewing this post

Best regards,
