Cell History
Right-click a cell and select View Cell History to see a log of changes made on the cell level, who made the changes, and when they were made.
When needed, you can also select the information and use the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl + C (Command + C on Mac) to copy a previous change and Ctrl + V (Command + V on Mac) to paste that information back in a cell.
System Columns
System columns Modified (Date) and Modified By to show the time that each row was last edited and the collaborator who made the change, on each row in the sheet. For more information, see Use a System Column to Automatically Add Information to a Row.
Activity Log
Click the Activity Log icon 
in the right Feature Bar to see a list of all changes made to an item, who made them, and when they were made. This includes changes such as row deletion (with the data that was deleted), who has viewed the item, and sharing permission changes.
