# Retrieve the ATS activity timeline

GET https://api.letsdeel.com/rest/ats/operation-history-logs

Returns the history of changes made to a candidate, application or job — who changed what and when, newest first. Use it to investigate how a record reached its current state, for example who approved an offer.

 **Token scopes**: `ats:read`, `worker:read`

 **Beta**: this version requires the `X-Beta: true` request header and its contract may change before it is promoted to stable. It is scheduled to become stable on 2027-01-28.
