Version History in Torq: Track Workflow Changes

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

Updated yesterday

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  • Any unpublished changes will be lost.
