This log displays an entry for each configuration. Each entry includes the date and time, the administrator user name, the IP address from where the change was made, the type of client (web interface or CLI), the type of command executed, whether the command succeeded or failed, the configuration path, and the values before and after the change.
However, sometimes the menu option might be missing in Panorama. Our member, @howardtopher, had this exact issue and reached out to the Live Community discussion forum for assistance.
He knew that those logs must be there because on the main dashboard there is a small widget showing the latest 'Config Logs' as seen in the illustration below:
Sure, you can work your way through the CLI and get the desired config logs:

That'll work but that's not very user friendly, is it...?
Instead, you just would like to have config logs, similar to the ones you have on your firewalls, easily accessible through the GUI.
On Panorama, the configuration log also exists ... you just have to make sure NOT to select a Device Group on the Monitor tab. Instead, make sure that the drop-down menu is set to 'All'. In doing so, you'll see an immediate change in the menu structure on the left side showing you the previously missing 'Configuration' menu:
This trick helped our member and I hope this little technique might be useful for other users out there!
