Viewing your History Logs

This is a new feature in ver3.0 which makes it easier to retrieve past commands across campaigns, ad groups and keywords.

The History Logs feature shows you all the history of actions taken, both by you teh seller and by the system, ZonTools. These are changes that were implemented per product, campaign, ad group, and keyword. This repository includes automation commands, such as Insert, Delete, Update.

For example:
