Introduction

• Building user activity logs in Adalo helps you track user interactions and monitor in-app behavior effectively.
• This guide will walk you through the process step-by-step, making sure you have a detailed understanding of how to implement user activity logs in your Adalo application.

Step 1: Set Up Your Database

• Create a new collection called "User Activities" in Adalo's database.
• Add fields such as "User ID", "Activity Type", "Timestamp", and any other relevant information you want to track.

Step 2: Create Actions to Log Activities

• Identify the specific actions or events you want to log, such as button clicks, page visits, or form submissions.
• For each action, add a "Create Record" action in Adalo to log these events into the "User Activities" collection.

Step 3: Link Actions to User Activities

• Make sure to include the "User ID" to track which user performed the action.
• Add dynamic fields to capture details like "Activity Type" (e.g., Button Click, Page Visit) and "Timestamp" (use the "Current time" function).

Step 4: Display User Activity Logs

• Create a new screen that will display the user activity logs.
• Add a list component and link it to the "User Activities" collection.
• Customize the list to display relevant activity details like activity type, timestamp, and user ID.

Step 5: Test Your Activity Logs

• Perform various actions in your app to test if the activity logs are being recorded correctly.
• Check the "User Activities" collection in Adalo to verify that the logs are capturing the necessary information.

Step 6: Optimize and Secure Activity Logs

• Implement filters or searches to help you easily find specific activities in the log screen.
• Ensure that you have appropriate privacy settings in place to protect user data.
• Consider setting up user roles and permissions to control who can view the activity logs.

Conclusion

• Following these steps will help you successfully implement user activity logs in your Adalo application.
• This setup allows you to track and analyze user behaviors, providing valuable insights for improving your app.
