- When you confirm changes in the Unsaved Changes pop-up
- When you use Save Version in the workflow
- When the workflow status changes (e.g., Draft → Publish or Publish → Draft) Auto Save note: routine auto-saves do not create new versions by themselves. To capture your current state as a version, click Save Version—this snapshots your latest auto-saved changes into Version History.!(https://assets.patientcopilot.ai/3cd4746876192f93.png) * * * ## Browse versions Open Version History to see your saved entries, organized by time and editor. Each entry shows: - Workflow name - Version number (e.g., v12, v13, v14) - Timestamp - Editor - Status (Draft or Published)
You can: - Filter by editor - View up to 10 versions or 30 days of history (whichever comes first) * * * ## Restore or create from a version - Click Restore next to any previous version to reopen it as a new draft. - Your Published workflow remains unchanged until you Publish the restored draft. - Or choose Create new workflow from version to branch into a separate workflow without touching the original.
When restoring: - The workflow must be in Draft. - There must be no enrolled contacts currently in the workflow. - The restored state becomes a new version—all prior versions remain available. * * * ## How Versions Are Created 1. Open a workflow and click the Version History icon in the sidebar. 2. Browse saved versions by timestamp and editor. 3. Click Save Version to snapshot your current auto-saved state. 4. Select any version → Preview (and Compare, if supported). 5. Click Restore to create a new draft, or Create new workflow from version for branching. 6. Test your draft and Publish when you’re ready. * * * ## Best practices - Name versions at milestones (e.g., “Added enterprise branch,” “Updated welcome sequence”). - Coordinate editors—use Save Version before large changes.
- Use Preview / Compare to validate differences before restoring.
- Branch safely with Create new workflow from version when you want to explore big ideas without touching the current build. * * * ## Notes & limitations - Draft → Publish: Restoring creates a new draft. You must Publish to push it live. - Undo/Redo resets after restore. Once you restore a version, your session history starts fresh from that draft. - Auto Save scope: Auto Save covers canvas edits; some configuration panel edits may still require their own save/apply (v1). - Retention: Version History keeps up to 10 versions or 30 days - Validation to restore: Workflow must be Draft with no enrolled contacts. - Availability: At launch, Version History is available via Labs Beta. Enable it in Settings → Labs for your account.
