# Activity Timeline on Profiles

> Help center reference

<Note>
  **Concept** — background and overview.
</Note>

When visiting any entity's profile page, check out their **Activity Timeline** to view a running log of field value changes and team communications over time.

### How the Activity Timeline works

1. Synced email/calendar data and field value changes will be recorded on the entity's Activity Timeline.
2. For example, changing the **Status** field (ranked dropdown) of a particular organization will be tracked on that organization's profile page.

**Note**: If you changed the status to the wrong status option, you can change it to the correct status option within 1 minute to prevent the wrong status option from appearing on the Activity Timeline.

3. Scroll down on the contact's profile page to see the change on the Activity Timeline.
   **Note**: If you do not have access to certain lists, field updates for those lists will not surface for you.

### Filtering the Activity Timeline

You can filter the **Activity Timeline** by the following attributes:

1. **Filter Activity**: Meetings, Phone Calls, Sent/Received Emails, Sent/Received Messages, Notes, List Activity, Reminders, and Files
2. **All Employees/Current Employees**: For organization profile pages, you can filter activities either by **All Employees** and **Current Employees**.
   * Please note that **Current Employees** is determined by the **Current Organization** field.
3. **All users**: You can filter activities by specific users on your team. 4.
   **Time Period**: Specify the time period.

### Why won't some emails or meetings show up on the Activity Timeline?

Here are three of the most common reasons:

1. You and/or your team member(s) may have your email accounts' syncing disabled (see [How to reenable syncing into Affinity](/s/article/How-to-reenable-syncing-into-Affinity)).
2. To avoid cluttering the Activity Timeline with unnecessary noise, Affinity will not show emails or meetings that contain the following words in their subject lines:
   * "**Tentatively Accepted:**" or "**Accepted:** "
   * "**Updated invitation:** " or "**Invitation:** "
   * "**Updated invitation with note:** " or "**Invitation with note:** "
   * "**Rejected:** "
   * "**Canceled Event:** "
   * "**Declined:** "
3. If you don't see any emails or meetings at all, you may have unchecked the following activity types: **Sent emails**, **Received emails**, and **Meetings**.
   * Click the **Filter Activity** button.
   * Then, click the checkboxes to show the emails and meetings.
