Last Modified By | This article explains how to create & work with a Last Modified By field. | [Fields Field types Last Modified By] | [Fields Field types Last Modified By] |
Since version v0.204.0 (Jan 2024), NocoDB internally captures the user who last modified a record. This information is stored as a system field in the database & is not included in the table by default. To view this information on the table, you can create a Last Modified By
field manually by following the steps below.
Create a Last Modified By
field
- Click on
+
icon to the right ofFields header
- On the dropdown modal, enter the field name (Optional).
- Select the field type as
LastModifiedBy
from the dropdown. - Click on
Save Field
button.
:::note
- When connected to an external database, user last modifying record information is not captured automatically. You can create a
Last Modified By
field manually by following the steps above. For external database connections, this field is not a system field & can be deleted. Last Modified By
field is empty indicates the record either- record was created & never modified.
- predates the last modified by feature (v0.204.0, Jan 2024). Prior to this feature release, this information was not captured.
- external database connection : information is captured only after the field is explicitly created.
Last Modified By
field is not updated when a record is initially created (is initialized to NULL). :::
Cell display
Last Modified By
field is displayed as a read-only field in the table view. Displays email address of the user who last modified the record if the user has no display name set. If the user has a display name set, the display name is displayed.
