Version History

Version History lets you track, manage, and restore saved and published versions of a place. You can use it to create and find development checkpoints, collaborate with other creators, and quickly roll back to a known good state when needed.

With Version History, you have access to the following:

• Version notes: Descriptive notes you can add to your saved and published places to create clear checkpoints for development milestones.

• Search: Search across version notes to more easily find the place version you're looking for.

• Advanced filtering: Filter by date range, save type (auto or manual), published saves, collaborator, and whether a save has version notes attached to it.

• Tracking collaborators: Track who was in a place edit session and who saved the place.

• Dockable widget: A Version History widget you can position anywhere in your Studio layout for easier access. You can access this widget by going to Window ⟩ Version History.
