Version History in Torq: Track Workflow Changes

Learn how to view and restore previous workflow versions, compare changes, and manage iterations efficiently.

Updated over 3 weeks ago

The version history allows you to view, compare, and restore previous versions of a workflow. Each version captures the state of the workflow at the time it was published or saved as a draft, providing full visibility into changes over time.

Version history entries are created for:

  • Published versions

  • Current drafts

Each version includes metadata and a visual representation of changes, helping you quickly identify what was modified, added, or removed.

How to use

Access version history

  1. Navigate to Workflows: Go to Build > Workflows.

  2. Open workflow: Select the workflow you want to review.

  3. Open version history: Open the menu and click Version History.

  4. Select version: Click a version to view its details.

Changes are visually highlighted:

  • Blue: Modified steps

  • Green: Added steps

  • Red (dropdown): Deleted steps

Each version includes:

  • Creation date: When the version was created

  • Author: The user who published the workflow or created the draft

  • Description: The version description provided during publishing

Compare changes

  1. Select version: Choose a workflow version from the history panel.

  2. Review changes: Inspect highlighted modifications in the workflow.

  3. Select a modified step: Click a highlighted step to view its updated fields.

  4. Compare values: Click View previous version to see prior values.

Changes to annotations, trigger parameters, and workflow settings are not displayed.

Manage workflow versions

  1. Open version menu: Hover over a version in the sidebar.

  2. Rename version: Assign a meaningful name for easier identification.

  3. Save as workflow: Create a new workflow from a previous version without affecting the current draft.

  4. Restore version: Replace the current draft with the selected version.

  • Restoring a version overwrites the current draft.

  • Any unpublished changes will be lost.
