Document history

2min

Document revision history is a feature that allows you to see the history of edits for an article — not just the last edit — and restore it to any version.

Autosave

Each change you make to a document is autosaved, and in turn becomes another version of the document.

How does it work?

1

Access history Click on the 3-dots icon to open the document menu and click on Document Revision History.

⚠️ Warning

If you're using the Review System, you'll need to finish your draft and merge it into the original to see the "Document review history" option.

4

Revert to a previous version Click the ↩ Revert button next to any saved version to restore the document to that state.

💡 Note

When you revert to a version of the document, we'll keep the history, and the version you selected will be the new document.

For more complex collaboration and granular control over documents, explore our Review System feature, which enables draft mode, review requests, and more detailed change comparisons.
