Change History - User Guide

Written by Radhika Shenoy

What is It?

Change History gives you a single place to see every change made across all your Google Ads accounts — whether it was made in Optmyzr, the Google Ads UI, scripts, the API, or another tool.

Change History is currently available only upon request. Please reach out to support@optmyzr.com if you'd like access to this feature.

Where to Find It

You can find the Change History tool under the Utilities section of the Optmyzr menu.

Alternatively, you can navigate to the Platform Change History tool from Optmyzr Explorer → Entities → Platform Change History.

How It Works

The Platform Change History tool lets you:

  • View every change across all your Google Ads accounts in one place. You can view the date & time of the change, details of what changed, who performed the change, and the source platform of the change.

  • Filter by account, campaign, entity, operation, user, source, and date range.

  • See the exact change made — old value and new value.

  • Use Ask AI to ask a question (for example, "Which budget changes were made to XYZ account?") instead of manually filtering the log yourself.

Is this the same as the Change History widget?

No, the Change History widget is a separate, existing feature: a single-account widget that reports Google Ads change counts by item/type, sourced from the Google Ads API (it doesn't include changes made in Google Ads Editor). While both tools use the same data source, Platform Change History is broader — it covers all your accounts at once, pulls in changes from multiple sources (including Optmyzr, the Google Ads UI, scripts, and the API), and shows the full detail of each change rather than just a count.
