## 💡 **Pro Tips**
|
|
|
|
**Tip 1:** Use date filters to minimize results before exporting
|
|
```
|
|
From: 2026-04-01, To: 2026-04-15 → 15 days of data → Faster export
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Tip 2:** Monitor critical actions weekly
|
|
```
|
|
Analytics tab → Scroll to "Critical Actions" → Check for unusual deletes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Tip 3:** Set up email digest for compliance
|
|
```
|
|
Cron job → Weekly digest → Store emails → Audit proof
|
|
```
