Find changes by date using advanced search

You can search the changeset list to find records that were created on a specific day. The default format for dates is MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS AM/PM. For example, 07/29/2025 7:38:25 AM.

Before you begin

To access the Changesets module, you must have one of the following permissions:
- Administrator permissions
- Changesets module permissions
Administrators can grant access to the Changesets module by following the steps in Allow non-Admin users to work with changesets.
In the Changesets module, Advanced search is available only on the Changesets tab. You cannot open Advanced search on the Histories tab.
The Advanced search feature in Changesets does not include Advanced content, so you cannot use XPath expressions here to search.

Tips and tricks

In Advanced search, you cannot choose a date range.
- You can select an operator to show all records older than a date or more current than a date.
- If you need to specify a specific date range, go to the basic search tools bar and use the From and To and fields. Keep in mind that if a range is too large, it will take some time to see results. Search changesets by dates
