Restoring Submission Versions

When a submission has two or more updates, the History panel will show a restore icon next to each earlier version. This allows you to restore the submission’s data to any of those previous versions. You can also restore it back to the latest version at any time.

Each update made to a submission appears in the History panel as “Changed at …”, and expanding it shows what was modified. When you restore a submission to an earlier version, the History panel records this as “Rolled back …”, indicating which version the submission was restored to and when the restore action happened.

Restoring a submission only updates the data to the selected version. It does not trigger any workflows, even if workflows are normally set to run on submission edits. This ensures that restoring history is safe and does not cause any automated processes to run unintentionally.
