Overview

When you deploy snapshots with Configuration Manager for Jira, you can perform thousands of changes on the Jira configuration in just a few steps. To give you greater visibility over how your Jira configuration was changed, Audit log component records each snapshot operation and provides details about the configuration changes. After you create or deploy a snapshot, you can review a summary and details of these operations in Configuration Manager's Audit Log component.
