Reports (A) summarize changes well, so they’re suited for tracking label edits.

A. Reports provide a summary of changes over time, including retention label edits, which fits the need to spot all changes in the last 30 days better than just activity logs or searches.

D imo, Content search is mainly for finding data, not tracking changes. Activity explorer (B) or Reports (A) make more sense for auditing, but since it asks for detailed changes, Activity explorer seems more on point.

It makes sense that Activity explorer (B) is the best bet since it logs detailed admin actions, which should include retention label changes within the last 30 days. Sarah S. B

B/D? Activity explorer (B) focuses on tracking user and admin activities, so it should capture changes to retention labels made by admins. Content search (D) is more about searching data, not auditing changes. Reports (A) might just give summaries and not detailed change logs. User data search (C) is unrelated since it’s for searching content users have. So between B and D, B makes more sense here because we want to see who changed what and when in the labels.

That’s a good point about Activity explorer focusing on user actions. I think A might be better since reports can include admin changes like label edits. So, I’d go with A.

A/B? Reports usually summarize changes, but Activity explorer tracks detailed actions by admins. For label modifications, Activity explorer feels more precise since it logs admin activities specifically.

Maybe D, content search focuses more on finding content than tracking label changes. Reports (A) are usually more about usage stats, not detailed change logs. Activity explorer (B) seems right but since the question is about changes specifically, I think content search is less relevant here. So probably D is out, but given the options, B still feels like the best fit if we want to track user actions on labels.

B or A? Need clarification on which tracks label edits specifically.
