ReportRecently, I was asked to get all the fields and their entities which were audited in a day so that we can decide if we really need to audit all of those fields and disable auditing where its not required.
As we know there is no Filtered view for audit entity and even advance find don't support Audit search, so it is bit difficult to get the list of fields audited. But Kelvin's blog put me on right path to write this query and get desired result.
Happy Coding
