Extension of the audit feature to cover individual content and download

Auditing is an important feature of IBM Change Tracker. Today, audits logs can be displayed manually by the Change Tracker Auditor. The audit information will be displayed by selecting menu icon on the corresponding dataset and click the “View Audit Log” entry. A table with the audit data will show up.

Currently there is no possibility to export or save the data to be able to hand it over to other departments or auditors. An export function should be available here. CSV, xlsx or any other tabular data format can be used as export format.

In addition, a selectable list of datasets should be used to create an entire exportable audit in one single move instead of having to export each audit log separately.
