Report on sys_history_line table

Hi,

Is there a way to create a report on the sys_history_line table?   I do not see this option in the list of tables.

We have a custom table that has auditing turned on, and we'd like to have a report that shows who updated what fields on the records.

Thanks,

Maria

Here's a little trick Maria...



Go to the table and right click on one of the columns and select "Bar chart" or "Pie chart".

That starts the report engine. From there you can customize and configure the report as you need.

I stand corrected...I used the URL you provided when I saw a different URL in my address bar...

 

I do now see the chart references, but they are grayed out...

Can you try on a different column? Forex can you try on Label column

W00t...guess I could have done that.  Just didn't occur to me that the column I clicked on would make a difference.

 

Of course, since posting an hour ago, I followed up with my alternate plan (custom field auto-popped with nowDateTime, and then reported on)...and I see what appears to be subsequent history tables being created, so I'd have only been reporting on one table anyhow.

 

But I'll try this next time I have a need...

 

Thanks for the help!

I'm looking to do the same, report on this table, but I cannot get it via direct reporting, or via the trick outlined here, i even navigated to the table using the url: https://YOURINSTANCENAME.service-now.com/sys_history_line_list.do?sysparm_query=  and i've clicked on many column headers and don't see chart options...

The Screenshot you referred earlier was pointing to the table columns on "sys_history_line" which points to the dictionary table. That is the reason I mention you to navigate to the table directly and not table columns. I hope this helps 🙂
