lifecycle hooks in menus plugin

I am trying to log the audit logs, how can i use lifecycle hooks in Menus plugin to achieve the activity logs by user.

Hi @atul1104 Currently there are no custom hooks in the menus plugin to allow you to do that, but we could talk about where they need to be added. I have never used the audit logs feature of Strapi so I might need an overview of what you're trying to capture in audit logs.

Yes surely, So I am implementing audit logs collection type where I am logging the users activities on other collection type such as if user create, update or delete any entry the same actions would be added as an entry in audit logs collection type. for this I am using lifecycle hooks e.g. afterCreate, afterUpdate, afterDelete etc. Now I want to implement the same for Menus plugin. For this I have created a filed called lifecycle.js beside the strapi-server.js file, i am trying with same lifecycle methods. and importing the same methods in strapi-server.js file. below is my lifecycle.js file as well as server.js file but when I console log the Menus entered data I am not getting the same. Lifecycle.js file: "use strict"; module.exports = { async afterCreate(event) { const { result, params } = event; console.log('result aftercreate in menus', result) strapi.entityService.create("api::log.log", { data: { contentType: "Menus", action: "New Content Entry", content: result, author: result.createdBy.email, }, }); }, }

strapi-server.js file: const menuItemLifecycle = require('./lifecycle'); plugin.contentTypes['menu-item'].lifecycle = menuItemLifecycle; console.log('menuItemLifecycle', menuItemLifecycle)
