Folders were moved, but the activity log doesn't show who moved them

Hi, 

 

I would like to seek help on how to check the logs further, as we have some folders moved into another folder and became a sub-folder (maybe accidentally clicked and dragged it by someone) but we cannot find any logs who did it from the Activity logs. 
The folders were still okay yesterday morning and found about it in the afternoon, I checked the logs, but no activity was found. I selected the "Moved Files and/or folders" from the Activity filter and event went to search up to last week to find anything, but no result.
we would like to find out how did it happened.

 

Thank you.

    Hey Richard Anthony! Hope you’re doing well. 

     

    From what I understand, you’ve checked your Admin Console > Activity tab, correct? 

     

    Have you also checked your Events page here

     

    What if you look at the version history of the folders that were moved, as well?

     

    Let me know if you find something more this way.
