Overview
Taskade Genesis keeps saved revisions as you build. Open App Revisions to preview an earlier state. See which version is live. Restore the version you want to continue from.
TL;DR: Open App Revisions to preview saved versions before restoring one. The Live badge marks the version visitors use. After a restore, an unpublished app stays in preview. A manually published app asks you to publish the restored version. An automatically published app updates the live version for you.
Read the Revision Timeline
Open App Revisions to see the saved versions currently available for the app. Entries show their sequence and time. Current Version marks your newest working state. Live marks the revision visitors see.

Before you restore anything, look for the Live badge. The live revision can differ from Current Version if you have unpublished edits.
| Revision label | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Current Version | The latest saved state in the builder | Keep editing or publish it |
| Live | The revision currently serving visitors | Use this as your public baseline |
| Version number | An earlier saved state available to preview | Select it, review it, then restore if needed |
Preview a Saved Revision
Open the panel from the builder toolbar. Browse and compare saved versions.
- Open your Taskade Genesis app in the builder.
- Open App Revisions from the toolbar.
- Browse the available versions and note the Live badge.
- Preview any version before you restore it.
Restore a Previous Revision
Pick the revision you want, preview it, then restore it as the app's current working state.
- Open App Revisions from the toolbar.
- Select the version you want to bring back.
- Click Restore Version.
- Wait for the restore to finish, then test the preview.
- Follow the message shown after the restore.
Tip: If restore fails, keep the selected revision open and try again. Restore uses the same workspace permission as app publishing.
Confirm What Visitors Will See
Before you close the panel, read the restore message. Taskade chooses the next step from the app's publishing state.
| App state | What happens after restore | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Not published | The restored version becomes the current preview | Test it, then publish when ready |
| Manually published | The live app keeps its previous version | Click Publish restored version when ready |
| Automatically published | The restored version goes live | Wait for the live update to finish |
Taskade EVE also receives the restored version as the new app context. Your next request continues from the version you selected.
Choose When to Restore
If you want to undo a change, restore a saved revision. You do not need to rebuild from scratch.
- Broken changes: return to the last revision that passed your test.
- Experimentation: compare a recent edit with an earlier design.
- Client feedback: restore a version a client preferred.
- Accidental deletion: recover a component or page from an available revision.
Protect Your Work
Preview a revision before you restore it. If you need an external backup, export important milestones. Do not treat the revisions panel as a promise of unlimited retention.
- Preview the selected revision before you click Restore Version.
- Record which revision carries the Live badge.
- Use GitHub Export and Import for an external copy of important app files.
- Follow the restore message after the restored preview passes your checks.
