    Hi,

    We can query custom object history in apex and if we use a web service method where we are querying the field history then we can use this in our logic to implement some apex code.Hope this makes sense.

    Thanks

    Hi Tanu,

    You can take the help of sobject history in your apex and built a query matching the sobject id with the related id field in history.

    Exapmle : If you want to track field history of Account object, you can use

    SELECT AccountId,CreatedById,CreatedDate,Field,Id,IsDeleted,NewValue,OldValue FROM AccountHistory

    Similarly If you want to query field history of custom objects, you have to match the parent id of history query with the custom object id.

    Example: If you want to track field history of Phase custom object, you can use

    SELECT CreatedById,CreatedDate,Field,Id,IsDeleted,NewValue,OldValue,ParentId FROM Phase__History

    Hope this helps you.
