Every change to your app creates a new version. You can revert to a previous version in the Versions tab at any time
Version history

​
How does versioning work?

Versions are sequential. Each change creates the next version number:
  • Version 1 → Version 2 → Version 3 → …
Versions don’t branch. If you revert from version 10 to version 6 and then make a change, it creates version 11.

​
How do I view version history?

Open the Versions tab in the sidebar to see all changes. Each entry shows:
  • What was added or changed
  • When it happened

​
How do I revert to a previous version?

We recommend waiting ~15 seconds after changing a version for everything to fully propagate. The backend needs to redeploy.
Two ways to revert:
  1. Version switcher near the Publish button
  2. Versions tab in the sidebar
Click a version and confirm to revert.

​
Can I go forward again after reverting?

Yes. All versions are preserved in history. Reverting doesn’t delete anything.

​
How long is version history retained?

Your versions are stored forever.

Additional FAQ

Almost everything: code, configuration, database schema. A version is a complete snapshot of your app at that point in time.The only things a version does NOT include are 1) files uploaded to Hercules Files and Media and 2) Data in the database.
Versions are automatically named based on what changed. Custom naming/tagging is on the roadmap.
Reverting restores code, rebuilds the app, and updates the preview. This takes up to ~30 seconds depending on app complexity.
