Tracking Modified Objects and User Activity in Appian

I am looking to gather details on all objects that been modified or updated in our Appian environment over last 6 months. Specifically,

1. How can I obtain a list of all modified /updated objects during this period? I know, we can manually check each objects versions for the changes made, or last modified but was wondering if there is consolidated a report at object level

2. Is there a way to track which users made these modifications and when?

If anyone has experience with this or can point me to relevant resources or methods, I would greatly appreciate your insights!

Thank you in advance for your help!

    If you go to the "all objects" tab it shows all objects by modification date in descending order by default.  There isn't much more automated than that.  Depending on the object type, you can view version history which shows version date and version author.  This is done manually per object.  Some of the log files have slightly additional info, but those will need to be checked manually too.

    Yes, I was checking the logs and was able to find the details who modified and when the objects were changed. But I've observed that the object details are recorded by UUID. Since there are lot many objects, I want to check how I can convert these UUIDs into object names in bulk? Any resources or guidance on this process would be immensely helpful.

    You can use getcontentdetailsbyuuid() function to get the object name.
