Is there a way to see finished quests in the Log Book?

Hi. I was wondering is there a way to see finished quests in the log book? I know I can see the map and the achievements but sometimes I need to read the content of the quest to understand better whats going on.

    Nope! Just one of many basic, simple staples of mmorpg design ignored by the amazing design team of ESO.
    Don't have an intelligent argument? Just LOL a post!

    Oh. That's really sad news. It worked well in Skyrim. You could always check the log a read about all your finished quests.

    Yea and the fact that this was not available as an API either suggests that their design probably did not allow such information to be retrieved easily.

    Sorry for my ignorance, but what is API? You really think it was hard to implement?

    API is basically a source of information that can be used to retrieve certain data from the game.

    Developers of add-ons use APIs to get useful data about the game like for example damage taken and damage dealt, and display them in the UI

    API = application programming interface. It's the set of function calls for a programmable system. In this case it's the set of calls that AddOns can use. There's no API calls for getting completed quest information, so no AddOns can be written for it either.

    Im beginning to think it was a deliberate move to omit a quest api to deflect broken quest with plausible deniabilty cant say its broken if you canr document it.
