Hi there, Is there a way to retrieve old Root attributes that could have been modified ? I am thinking about a user that changes his `phone_number` or `nickname`, can i retrieve the old ones somehow ? If not, should i just move the current values to `user_metadata` before updating ? ---

Hi @Singtah, I believe the only option here would be to go through your tenant logs. You’ll want to export your logs to a 3rd party service since Auth0 maintains at the most 30 days of logs. There’s no ‘journaling’ or change history capability at the moment as far as I know. ---

Hi @markd Thank you for your answer. That could be a possibility, i will have to take a look a the logs. My goal is to keep track of every state a user account could take (during registrations and then after further updates like phone, address…) The easiest way is to have a different uuid for every state that the user account takes and keep, as you suggested, the logs for the data with a reference to that uuid Is it the only way of keeping records for user account states ? Thank you for your suggestions ---

If by “keeping records for user account states” you mean keeping a history / changelog then there is no way to do that natively within Auth0. I would suggest [submitting feedback / a feature request](https://auth0.com/feedback). If not a native changelog / journaling feature, maybe Auth0 can add an “on profile update” hook that would allow you to implement something yourself. ---

Hi @markd Yes, that’s what i need : keep history of the user profile data. I will submit a feature request Last question regarding a closed post (did not respond fast enough here) : [Magic Link security](http://community.auth0.com/t/magic-link-security/36880) Are you able to provide the parameters that are held in the `state` . Even though my question is about the security of the magic link, the idea is also the same here : i would like to keep a record of the parameters that were send in the transaction. Thank you for your help ---

I’m afraid I don’t know what parameters, if any, are held in the `state` value for a magic link. ---

How do you make sure the link is opened in the same browser then ? ---

I’m not familiar with the technical details. It may be that the state parameter is stored in a signed cookie locally (this is how state is handled in other scenarios), but I am not certain. ---

Thank you @markd, Do you know where i could that information ? ---

If it’s not in the [docs](https://auth0.com/docs/protocols/oauth2/oauth-state), you’ll need to ask Auth0. I’d suggest [opening a ticket](https://support.auth0.com/login).
