Find out who deleted an item from a SharePoint Online List

Hello Dear Community,

 

Let's say a user deletes an item from a Share Point Online List. Is there a way we can find out the user name of the person who deleted that?

 

I looked in the site's Recycle Bin but there is no "Deleted by" column. Any help, please?

 

 

Thanks in advance. Best regards.

    Maybe it wasn't the user who deleted the information and if it was they may have been removed as a result!
