Hi,

I'd like to implement some additional CMS auditing to record when any changes are made to a page type by a user within the CMS (Such as adding a new property, or removing an existing property).

I was hoping that there would be an event or something similar that I can hook into but am having trouble identifying anything suitable.

Has anyone accomplished a similar thing?

Thanks.

I haven't tested this myself but there two static events on ContentTypeRepository (ContentTypeSaved and ContentTypeDeleted), that I think you should be able to use to handle this scenario.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Can confirm the below logic works.

      protected void Application_Start()
        {
            ContentTypeRepository.ContentTypeSaved += (sender,eventArgs) =>
            {
                // Logic here
            };
        }

Hey Luke,

Just a small side-note. You should rather use an initialization module to subscribe to events. Read more https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/CMS/initialization/

They will get re-executed in case of an exception + you can add dependencies. A very similar example to yours: https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/CMS/initialization/Creating-an-initialization-module/

BR,
