Logging Changes from multiple fields to repeating group

Need help Database
1

This is a bit of a complex issue, so I’ll preface and say that I haven’t tried anything yet becasuse I’m not sure where to start.

Basically, I’m trying to create a feed (repeating group) that populates with changes made to fields from the back end of the app. For example, say in an over arching project, there are events, goals, tasks, and contacts. I want to collect change data ( i.e. an event was added, progress was made on a goal, several tasks were completed, messages were responded to from contacts, etc.) savei it, and display it in a repeating group (The change, the time it happened, who made the change).

Separately, I want to be able to filter and display changes by one of the above-mentioned fields.

How should I go about doing this?

I might create a type of thing called an update, and have the repeating group show Updates. The Updates can have a type that you can filter on, and you’d create an Update any time a change is made.

That’s the first thing I thought of, but haven’t tried it on an app yet.

In case anyone comes back to this, it wasn’t that difficult. The part I was having a difficult time wrapping my head around was the creating an update any time a change is made.

All that needed to be done was to add a 2nd action to the event in the workflow that logged the event and the information.
