Integrating Assets with Activity Stream integrating-assets-with-activity-stream
Adobe Experience Manager Assets users perform many actions like creating, uploading and deleting Assets. These actions can be recorded so you are able to provide an history of what has been done by a user. This section describes the recording capabilities of Experience Manager and how to configure Experience Manager in order to record specific events.
