Workflow Versioning

πŸ—„ Workflow Versioning

Introducing Workflow Versioning, a detailed audit trail and history of all changes made to a given Workflow.

Workflows are at the heart of Rootly. By making it easier to track changes made over time, teams will find Workflows even easier to manage and safely collaborate together than it already is.

Why? Previously, there was little to no visibility who made the change or what they were. Now there is a mechanism to quickly see what changes were made without needing to recall from memory and compare each Workflow attribute.

  • Visually pleasing so at a glance changes from one version to another are obvious (e.g. colour coding)
  • Version numbers and date changed
  • User that executed the change
  • The changes themselves track both past to present differences for all Workflow attributes (e.g. trigger, condition, task, etc.)

Existing customers can access this feature by heading into Rootly > Workflows > Clicking on any Workflow name > Versions.
