Version Restore
Introduction
Holistics supports restoring your code-based analytics project to a previous version. This feature lets you explore and make changes to data models, datasets and dashboards more freely without the fear of creating irreversible effects.
- Version Restore maintains version history. This feature creates a new version, so your version history is only appended, not deleted or modified.
- Version restore is reversible. You can choose to restore again to get back to where you started.
How to restore a version
To revert a project to a previous version, please follow these steps:
Step 1: Go to Source Control
Go to “Source control” tab on the left toolbar to view previous versions of your project.
Step 2: Identify the version that you want to restore back to
Let’s say that you have a version which implements some undesirable changes, identify the version that comes immediately before.
This is the version that you want to restore back to, because it contains the state of your project before the undesirable changes.
Double-check the content to make sure that you are restoring to the right version.
Step 3: Restore version
Once you have selected a version that contains the state of your AML project before the undesirable changes, initiate a version restore.
You can initiate a version restore when viewing a particular version, or when viewing the entire version history.
Step 4: View restored files in AML studio
After a version restore is completed, the latest version now contains the state of the AML project without the undesirable changes.
You can go to the latest version and jump to relevant files in AML studio using the link on each file.
