A data export with an "Activity log" data type will export data from an employee's activity log found under an employee's profile in the Activity Logs). Similar to the categorization of the employee's activity log into modules, the data types export each log according to the module.
These data types are effective date and end date based, meaning that the export will pull information within a specified date range. Information on how effective dates are used can be found in the Data Export Properties Tab article, under Manual Export Effective Date and Scheduled Export Effective Date.
You can use these data types to pull a comprehensive list of all activity that occurred against an employee's record, instead of alternate data types that will pull single values assigned to an employee.
Activity log exports do not export data older than six months from the day the file is executed. If information past six months is needed, refer to the individual employee's activity log.
