Article versioning & history

Article versions & history

The Article Versions & History feature gives you a comprehensive, timestamped record of every change made to your product data-down to the individual field-so you can audit, compare, and revert with confidence.

  • Full change log: every edit (text, attributes, images, classifications) is recorded with user ID, timestamp, and the exact before-and-after values.

Common use cases

  • Audit & compliance: demonstrate to regulators or internal auditors exactly when and by whom critical fields (e.g. allergen listings, nutritional values) were updated..
  • Collaboration transparency: track contributions from multiple team members—editors, translators, QA reviewers—and attribute each change to its author for accountability.

Benefits

  • Complete traceability: every change is logged and retrievable, so you never lose track of your data’s evolution.
  • Regulatory confidence: maintain an immutable history of compliance-related fields for audits and certifications.
  • Streamlined collaboration: understand who did what, when, and why—to foster accountability and reduce merge conflicts.
