+[[= product_name =]] logs various operations on the repository and in the application.

+If you have **Setup / Administrate** and **Activity Log / Read** [permissions](permission_system.md),
+you can review the most recent activity log in  the Back Office, **Admin** -> **Recent activity**.
+
+![Recent activity](recent_activity.png "Recent activity")
+
+By default, actions on the following items are displayed:
+
+- [Content](content_items.md)
+- [Location](manage_locations_urls.md#content-locations)
+- [Product](products.md)
+- [Product variant](work_with_product_variants.md)
+- [Site](work_with_sites.md)
+
+!!! note
+
+    If your implementation requires that other actions are logged,
+    see [custom log entry developer documentation]([[= developer_doc =]]/administration/recent_activity/recent_activity/#adding-custom-activity-log-entries).
+
+    By default, log entries are kept for 30 days.
+    This time can be modified through configuration.
+    For more information, see [developer documentation]([[= developer_doc =]]/administration/recent_activity/recent_activity/#configuration-and-cronjob).
+
+Log entries are grouped by date,
+then by logical bond (like web request, or migration file).
+
+Each activity log entry shows
+
+- when the action was performed,
+- who performed it (avatar, first name, last name),
+- the action itself as a verb,
+- and the item the action was performed on.
+
+Depending on the system configuration, activity logs may also be shown:
+
+- on the Dashboard with the [Recent activity block](dashboard_block_reference.md#recent-activity-block)
+- within the [user profile](get_started.md#view-and-edit-user-profile)
