Update History Panel keeps an audit-friendly log of updates performed via the WordPress admin update workflows:
<ul>
<li>WordPress Core</li>
<li>Themes</li>
<li>Plugins</li>
</ul>
The log is shown as a panel on the Dashboard → Updates screen and can also be retrieved via the REST API:
<pre><code>GET /wp-json/update-history-panel/v1/logs
</code></pre>
For security reasons, the endpoint requires an authenticated user with the <code>update_core</code> capability by default.

Update History Panel

Log WordPress core, theme, and plugin update history and display it on the Updates screen. A REST API endpoint is available for administrators.
