Drafts and Versioning capabilities are now releasing for the new Power Automate designer, so you can create and edit flows at your own pace and review version history when needed. Draft versions and version history are stored in Dataverse, so these new capabilities are specifically for solution cloud flows defined in Dataverse.
Drafts and Versioning capabilities
- Save drafts - Save a draft of a flow whenever you want, even with errors. Make changes to your flow with confidence at your own pace.
- Publish a flow - When you're ready for changes to a flow to have an effect at runtime, the flow can be published.
- View version history - Review a flow's version history list to understand how it evolved. View flow versions grouped by day with indicators for Latest version, Published, and Past published.
- Restore past versions - When you view a flow's version history list, you can select a previous version for review, and optionally restore it as a new draft.
Availability
The flow drafts and versioning feature set is only available for solution cloud flows in the new designer. Solution cloud flows can be created directly in a solution, added into a solution, or created by default if the Create in Dataverse solutions environment setting is enabled.
The flow drafts and versioning feature set is being released slowly across specific environments region-by-region. When drafts and versioning capabilities show up in an environment in your region, please allow two weeks for full release in that region.

We hope you'll get a chance to try these new capabilities soon!
