Edit Canvasapp

Hey, I have a canvas app, but when I want to test something in the canvas app, sometimes I don't remember the steps I've taken, so I don't know how to undo them. Currently, I always make a copy of the app and then create a test version. Is there an easier way to do this within the existing app?

    hi @Coendw ,

    there is a button on top left of canvas app to Undo and Redo you can click on thatScreenshot_20240531_165340.png

    if you want to do undo than click on the button just right after the back button

    I know that, but sometimes I have made so many changes that I have to click back many times, or it's no longer possible to click back, for example when I work on it at two different times.

    Hi @Coendw ,

    Simply save regularly and you can reinstate earlier Version of the app whenever you need (Select App >three dots >Details >Versions) You can also use "Save As when you do this and examine your original code separate from the latest.

    Hi @Coendw 

    You can turn off the autosave option in settings>general.

    But u have to save the app manually.

    and if u want to revert back to previous save then just reload the app.
