Using Previous Object Versions

You can use the rollback feature to set the newest object version use the content and metadata of a previous object version. For example, if incorrect information was added to a document in versions 4 and 5, you can roll back the document to version 3. As a result, M-Files creates version 6 with the content and metadata of version 3.

To roll back an object:

  1. Select an object in the listing area.
  2. At the top of the metadata card, click the Show activity icon ().
  3. Next to a version number, click the three dots icon ().
  4. Select Roll back to this version.
  5. In the confirmation dialog, select Roll back.
M-Files creates a new object version with the content and metadata of the version that you selected in step 3.
