Note:
Although it is possible to define Rules on the History object, events are not propogated for the History object, so the Rules are not triggered.

History Fields

Category category Identifies the type of activity.
For example:
  • 2 - Updated this case*
  • 4 - Closed this case
  • 11 - Completed this task
  • 25 - Changed field value* (only applies to Audited Fields)
  • 29 - Added a note.

*Category 25 is used when a case field is modified. Category 2 does not appear to be used.

For a complete list, see GearIcon.png > Customization > Global Picklists > History Category'

Description description

Varies, depending on the activity category. For category 25 (audited field modified), the structure is:
{#structure-identifier^field-label^old-value^new-value^record-identifier}

Example:

{#field_audit.recordname_modified_old_to_new
^#fieldlabel.c3a93f70aa004de6aeb5f9073eb1f759.subject
^Original case title
^Revised case title
^000005}

(If multiple audited fields were modified during a record update, there is one history entry per field.)
