About Dashboard Versioning

A version is a snapshot of all the dashboard’s widgets, applied filters, and personalization. A dashboard version is created whenever your dashboard is saved.

Qtip: Some dashboard edits have to be manually saved, while others are saved automatically. See Saving vs. Auto-Saving.

Studio keeps track of up to 20 of the most recently saved versions of your dashboard. You can restore these at any time.

Qtip: Only dashboard owners can manage a dashboard’s versions.

Restoring a Dashboard

  1. Open the dashboard you want to revert.
    Inside a dashboard, opening 3 dots menu
  2. Click the options menu.
  3. Select Versions.

Saving a Version as a New Dashboard

You can save a previous version of your dashboard as a new dashboard. This lets you edit different versions of your dashboard separately.

Unlike copying a dashboard, saving a dashboard version does not change ownership of the dashboard’s widgets to the person saving the verison. Instead, the original dashboard owner is still the owner of the new dashboard’s widgets.

Qtip: Saving a dashboard version as a separate dashboard makes no changes to the original dashboard and its versions.
  1. Open the dashboard.
    Inside a dashboard, opening 3 dots menu
  2. Click the options menu.
  3. Select Versions.
  4. Select the version you want.
    navigating dashboard versions
  5. Click Save as.
  6. Provide a name for the new dashboard.
    New window where you set dashboard properties
  7. Select a folder where you’ll save the dashboard (optional).
  8. Click Save.

Once you finish, a new dashboard will be opened. You’ll be able to edit this dashboard.
