Every task, note and other item keeps a record of its changes: who made each change and when. This is most useful in a shared project, where you can see what other people did while you were away. Activity lists changes only; there are no comments.
See a task's activity#
The task's activity shows changes such as "completed", "changed status to In progress", "added tag" or "assigned", grouped by day, newest first.
- Open the task. Its pane opens on the right.
- At the top of the pane, click Activity. Details takes you back.
- Open the task. Its pane opens on the right.
- At the top of the pane, tap Activity.

Notes, boards, calendars, spreadsheets and whiteboards show their activity in their details.

Compare old and new values#
For notes, spreadsheets and whiteboards, History follows the activity on the Activity tab. It lists each change to the item's name, description or (for a note) status, with the old value and the new one, for example "In review → Published", and when the item was created.
Follow changes to a whole project#
Project history covers changes to the project itself rather than to one item: renaming the project, its colour, its place among your projects, the order of its items, and its board columns being renamed, moved or deleted.
Open the project's page, then click Activity at the top. The Overview tab also has a short Activity list with Show all.
In an item's details, Project history is at the bottom of the Activity tab. Click it to open it.
