Editing Public Versions

Editing a public version creates a temporary private version.

Context

When you begin editing data in a public version, a private version is created. Other people cannot see your changes and you cannot see their changes.

You can edit different versions in a table as well as versions in multiple tables in your story.

Tip

You don't need to finalize your changes during one editing session. When the Publish Data dialog appears, you can select OK to leave the editing session; your edits won't be reverted or published and you can resume editing later.

Procedure

During the editing process, you can stop or revert your changes with one of the following options:

From the menu, select Version Management; in the Version management panel, do one of the following:
- Undo or Redo:
  
  Choose your version and then select either Undo or Redo.
- History: go to a specific edit without having to undo all the other edits one by one.
  1. Choose your version and then select History.
  2. In the History panel, select the edit that you want to go back to.
    
    Your changes are rolled back or reset to the chosen edit.
  3. Close the panel.
- Revert Changes: removes all the changes and resets the public version.
  1. Choose your version and then select Revert Changes.
  2. To revert all the changes, select OK.
From the toolbar, select (Publish Data); in the Publish Data dialog, do one of the following:
- Next to each version, select either (Revert) or (Publish)
- To update all the versions at once, select either Revert All or Publish All.
