Hey, is there a way to see product changes? Like when a change was made on a product? Like an edit history?

There is one “hidden” way. When you open a product in the backend, in the URL append “/events.json” at the end.
For example:
https://admin.shopify.com/store/{your-store-link}/products/9954787197241/events.json
Although it doesn’t show all logs, only some of the edits are logged.
Or another solution, shameless plug but you can use Loggr ‑ Edit History & Revert - Product Edit History & Revert – Loggr | Shopify App Store

Shopify does not have full product edit history (like Google Docs does), but it does keep track of changes in the Activity Log.
-
You can check this by going to:
Admin → Settings → Activity (or Notifications) → View all activity.
There you’ll see a timeline of actions (e.g., “Product title updated,” “Inventory changed,” etc.), including the staff account and timestamp. -
However, this log isn’t as detailed as a “version history.” It won’t always show the before and after values for product descriptions, titles, or images.
Ways to get full edit/change history:
-
Apps from the Shopify App Store – Apps like Activity Log, Rewind Backups, or Store Watchers give detailed product change tracking and rollback.
-
Export product CSV regularly – You can compare CSVs over time to see exactly what changed.
-
Custom tracking via Shopify API – If you’re technical, you can log edits yourself by pulling product update webhooks into a database.
Quick summary:
-
Shopify has a basic edit log under Activity.
-
For detailed history (who changed what, and ability to restore), you’ll need an app or a backup system.
I hope this helps emily?
