Feature Request: Message Timestamps, Session Duration and Exportable Audit Logs

Please add exact message-level timestamps, conversation start/end times, total elapsed duration, file-upload timestamps, and exportable audit logs in PDF, CSV, JSON and text.

This would support users who rely on ChatGPT for research, accessibility, project tracking, education disputes, complaints, CPD records, governance work and evidence-led workflows.

At present, users may need accurate timing and provenance but cannot reliably export this metadata from the chat. This weakens trust, auditability and record-keeping.

Tags: chatgpt-ux, research, accessibility, audit-logs if available. I couldn’t source all tag categories.

Thanks for sharing this feedback. Having access to exact message-level timestamps, conversation timing information, file-upload timestamps, and exportable audit logs could be valuable for users who rely on ChatGPT for research, record-keeping, accessibility, governance, and other evidence-based workflows.

I appreciate you taking the time to outline the use case and potential benefits. I'll pass this feedback along to the team for consideration.
