Backs the Activity page. What happened on the server, newest first: plays started and finished, root works added, sign-ins and failed ones, users joining, task runs ending and problems raised, kept 90 days. Each event’s fields are nested under its kind’s group: play, added, signIn, joined, task or problem. Names are as they were when it happened. A run of failed sign-ins for one user from one address within the hour is one event, its count and occurredAt the latest. An activityChanged event says there’s more.
