Hello @Thomasqqq, we already have both the [‘Last modified’](https://baserow.io/user-docs/date-and-time-fields#last-modified-field) and [‘Last modified by’](https://baserow.io/user-docs/last-modified-by-field) fields available in Baserow. 🙂

Hi Olgatrykush - thanks for getting back to me.

But in the topic - Last modified by field - we need to be able select what fields, we need to check for a last modifed.  
Eg. using a integration tool, we are looking for modifed fields, to find changes, but normally we want to be able to check just a few fields, and not all in the database/table. this is due to, if i want to post back the integration status for that row (completed/failed) then the integration will loop for each rows as the status is updated…

Also automations, if based on update a field - i want to autofill some other fields in the same database, it will just loop as last modifed will be today()…

Apologies for the confusion.

This request has been approved, and I have created an issue on GitLab for you to track the progress: [Last modified by specific field (#2356) · Issues · Baserow / baserow · GitLab](https://gitlab.com/baserow/baserow/-/issues/2356). I will also discuss the priority of its implementation with the team. I will keep you posted on this.
