# Flow Version Control

As your flows grow more complex and are often built collaboratively or evolve over time, ensuring visibility into changes becomes essential. Workflows provides built-in version control, allowing you to move back and forth between versions. This feature makes it easy to change your flow and revert to a previous version for any reason. You can troubleshoot issues with integrations or nodes, restore lost work, and manage contributions across teams.

Version control significantly improves your organization’s:

- Flow reliability
- Collaboration
- Debugging capabilities

Each time you click **Save** while working on a flow, a new flow version is automatically created with a timestamp. ![flow Save button](https://cdn.document360.io/098100b7-b9da-4bea-b4b9-017140ab863e/Images/Documentation/WorkflowsSave(1).png)

## Version History

Click the timestamp icon at the top of a flow to browse the version history of saved flow versions.

The **Version History** dropdown displays the details of each flow version (date/time saved, by whom) in chronological order, with the most recent version listed first. You can click a version to view the changes made in read-only preview mode.

To revert your current active flow to a previous version to edit in read-only preview mode, click **Restore this version**.

You can also click the three dots next to a version > **Restore this version**.

The **Run history** table on the **Run history** page displays the timestamp of the flow version used for each run of that specific flow.

> Note that you must click **Save** to save a version of a flow with the current timestamp. This ensures that the original version remains unedited.
