What would also be very useful is the ability to do a search on "bulk" updates i.e. with change sets with multiple cells affected.
I would want to be able to search for changes made by George in the last Day/Date Range and then see a list of change sets and times.
This would narrow down the playing field for those big changes where >1500 cells could have been impacted and allow us to quickly from a list see the change set id relating to changes e.g.
e8b 2024-09-19 10:01:02
e9c 2024-09-19 09:15:25
Typically when someone has made a mistake or has a need to rollback, we could target the log for that user and a rough time, so a list like the above could then allow us to filter further by change set id and roll it all back in one go.

Subject: PAW Transaction Log Query performance
We are making some improvements to performance of the transaction log query over REST API. These changes will be delivered in the next update to TM1 Server. This will probably be the Planning Analytics 2.0.9.21 release and a corresponding 2.1.x release.
At the same time we are working on some major improvements to the PAW modeling workbench user interface for transactions logs. We are introducing lazy loading, so as the modeler scrolls more transaction records from the query will be loaded. This will allow the modeler to examine more than 1500 transaction records at a time. There are a few other minor user interface improvements planned as well (e.g searching transactions from multiple users at a time). These improvements will be delivered in a PAW update before the end of this year.

Just to close this out, this is a known issue already being tracked on an APAR, PH61508.

Subject: PAW Transaction Log Query performance
Hi,
I do have a support ticket open for this (TS017250981) but since it relates to the demise of the rich tier and more generally to Perspectives itself I thought I would raise it here as well.
Our PAoC customer is reporting massive increases in Transaction log query times, to the point that the functionality is not usable.
In Perspectives using the rich tier the response time was 7 seconds, in PAW the response time was 43 minutes. The query should have been searching over 35 files totalling 600MB. This is 7 days of files, with a Save Data chore running at a high frequency.
Is this a known issue with the current implementation as this performance isn't acceptable for such a small query volume.
In addition, the query when run from PAW was found to be locking, i.e. TI processes were queueing behind it.
I can't see a reason for this to be a locking activity, is this by design?
Cheers!
