Logging Activity

Question

At the moment using Apex 3.2, but looking to upgrade to 4.1
My company have asked me to look into logging activity from Apex.
I can get a lot of useful information from the APEX_WORKSPACE_ACTIVITY_LOG view, ie pages viewed and times.
I also need to log things like which button was pressed and which page process was called.
Is there a way to do this from the Apex views ?
Cheers

I am not sure how to get the information for the button clicked or the procedure that ran.Well, you wrote the process that gets triggered when the user presses a button, so just add the logging information to the process itself, something like this:
begin
  my_logging_package.log_process (:app_id, :app_page_id, :app_user, :app_session, :request, p_procedure_name => 'my_other_package.my_procedure_name');
  my_other_package.my_procedure_name (:p1_name, :p1_address, :p1_phone);
end;As you can see, you can get a lot of the information dynamically, but you need to provide the procedure name yourself.
