How to manage prompt versions and restore previous versions
ZBrain's prompt manager includes powerful version control capabilities that allow you to track changes, compare different iterations, and restore previous versions when needed. This ensures you can experiment with prompt improvements while maintaining the ability to revert to earlier configurations if necessary.
Understanding version history
Accessing version history
Open the prompt you want to review in the prompt editor
Click on the circular arrow icon
to access the version history panel, which will appear in the right corner of the interface
Version history panel
The version history panel displays:
A chronological list of all saved versions of your prompt
The date and time each version was created
The ZBrain user who made the changes
A blue dot indicator highlighting the current active version

Each entry in the version history represents a saved state of your prompt, including:
The prompt text and instructions
Model settings and parameters
Variable configurations
Role definitions
Comparing versions
The version history feature allows you to:
See when changes were made to your prompt
Identify who made specific changes
Understand the evolution of your prompt over time
Select different versions to view their complete configuration
This visibility helps teams maintain quality control and provides accountability for prompt modifications, especially in collaborative environments.
Restoring previous versions
If you need to revert to an earlier version of your prompt:
Review the available versions and their timestamps
Click on a previous version to preview its configuration
When you have identified the version you want to restore, click the ‘Restore’ button in the top-right corner

Important considerations when restoring
Restoring a previous version will replace the current active version
The restored version will become the new current version
The system will create a new entry in the version history indicating that a restoration occurred
Best practices for version management
Create meaningful changes between versions that are easy to identify
Test each new version before publishing to production
Review performance metrics between versions to validate improvements
Use version history to identify which configurations produced the best results
By effectively using the version history and restore functionality in ZBrain's prompt manager, you can confidently experiment with prompt optimizations while maintaining the ability to quickly revert to proven configurations when needed.
