ContentTrace.Umbraco

Content activity tracking for Umbraco 17. Logs save and publish actions on content nodes and displays them in a backoffice dashboard.

Features

  • Automatically logs all content Save and Publish actions
  • Records the user, content node, action type, and timestamp
  • Backoffice dashboard in the Content section with a sortable activity table
  • Clickable content node links to navigate directly to the editor
  • REST API endpoint for programmatic access
  • Automatic database migration on startup (no manual setup required)

Installation

dotnet add package ContentTrace.Umbraco --version 1.0.0

Setup

Add MapControllers() in your Program.cs endpoint configuration. This is required for the API controller to work:

app.UseUmbraco()
    .WithMiddleware(u =>
    {
        u.UseBackOffice();
        u.UseWebsite();
    })
    .WithEndpoints(u =>
    {
        u.EndpointRouteBuilder.MapControllers(); // Required for Content Trace
        u.UseBackOfficeEndpoints();
        u.UseWebsiteEndpoints();
    });

That's it. The package auto-registers its services via an Umbraco Composer and runs database migrations on startup.

Usage

After installation, navigate to the Content section in the Umbraco backoffice. You'll see a new Content Trace dashboard tab that displays a log of all save and publish actions.
