You can easily monitor all the changes people have made to your content using to the Version history side panel.
In the Version history of a space, you can see a list of all the actions that changed the content within it. These include:
When someone made live edits to the space.
When someone merged a change request.
When someone performed a Git Sync operation.
To view past versions of your content and see the changes that were made, click the Version history button from the space’s Actions menu in the top-right corner.
Permissions: Only users with admin, creator, reviewer and editor permissions can view the version history for a space.
Click on any item in the list to see how your content looked at the point this change was made. This is very similar to how you view change requests.
When you are viewing an old version of your content, you can choose to highlight the differences between the old and current content — similar to diff view in a change request.
To enable or disable this, use the Show changes toggle at the bottom of the Version history side panel.
With show changes enabled, content that has changed will be highlighted by an icon on the left of its content block.
If you're investigating the version history of a published space, you can also view previews of what the previous versions looked like in the published context (i.e. what the end user would see).
You can do this by:
From the version history side panel, select the revision
Copy the ID at the end of the URL
Add it at the end of your published docs URL as /~/revisions/<id>
Rolling back allows you to revert a space’s content to the way it was at a previous point in time. This is helpful if you’ve accidentally made a breaking change or deleted content and need to quickly get back to a previous version of the space.
Permissions: Only users with admin, creator and reviewer permissions can roll back to a previous version.
To roll back to a previous version of your space, hover over the version in the side panel, click the Actions button and select Rollback.
