# Track and restore asset versions

> Use asset history to see every change to an asset and roll back to any previous version in one click.

As your library grows, a wrong file upload, an accidental rename, or an access change flipped from public to restricted can quietly break partner-facing content. Introw logs every change to an asset automatically and lets you roll back to any previous version in one click, so you get both an audit trail and a safe undo. This guide shows how to read an asset's history and restore an earlier version without losing the record of what happened.

## What you'll achieve

Confidence that any change to an asset can be reviewed and reversed: you can open an asset's history, see who changed what and when, and restore a previous version instantly, with the restore itself logged so the audit trail stays intact.

## Before you start

<Steps>
  <Step title="Have an asset with history">
    Version history builds up as an asset changes. See [Build the asset library](./build-the-asset-library) if you are still setting content up.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Know what is tracked">
    History captures name changes, file replacements, access changes (Public, Portal, Restricted, including audience filters), category moves, thumbnail updates, and archiving or restoring. Any of these becomes a restore point.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the asset">
    Go to [Asset library](https://app.introw.io/assets/library) and open the asset you want to review. The detail view opens with tabs for its access, engagement, and history.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the History tab">
    Select the **History** tab. You see a chronological log of every change since the asset was created, so you can trace exactly what happened and when, and identify the version you want back.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Restore a previous version">
    Find the entry you want to return to and select **Restore** next to it. The asset reverts to that version immediately. The restore is logged as a new entry, so nothing before or after it is deleted and you can always roll forward again. Because the log is preserved, you can safely restore without losing the record of what changed.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Verify it worked

After restoring, the asset shows the previous version's file, name, access, or thumbnail as expected, and the **History** tab now includes a new entry recording the restore, with all earlier entries still present. Partners immediately reach the restored version wherever the asset is shared.
