About synchronization history
Administration Console provides the Synchronization History feature that allows you to view the details of completed sync workflow runs, password sync rule runs, and map and unmap operations.
The synchronization history also helps you troubleshoot synchronization issues by providing information on the errors that were encountered during sync workflow runs, password sync rule runs, or map and unmap operations.
You can also selectively clean up entries from the synchronization history.
To access the synchronization history, use the Sync History tab in the Administration Console.
