Versions and Version History
Intended audience: USERS DEVELOPERS ADMINISTRATORS
AO Platform: 4.3
Overview
Most Composers allow Versions to be created of the object being designed/configured. All Versions are automatically recorded on the Version History page in the Composer’s Design area. This includes such objects as MSOs, Pipelines, Pages, Applications, and Annotations. This page identifies where such Versions are created and where to find the Version History page in case an older version of an object needs to be restored.
Save as Version (Explicit)
A user can explicitly save one or more designs/configurations as a Version using the Save as option in the Header of the Composer.
Auto-save as Version (Implicit)
When a Draft object is Published, a Version is created automatically of the Published object.
Version History
The Version History page will automatically be updated when a Composer object is saved as a Version explicitly or implicitly - essentially creating multiple different versions (or snapshots) of objects over time. Hover each entry in the Version History to select to:
Open - opens a version of a previously saved object on a separate tab in the Composer in read-only mode.
Restore - replaces the current design/configuration with the previously created version.
