Work with versions in the History dialog

Important:

Versioning is very different depending on whether or not you're using a collaborative editing hub. If you are not using collaborative editing, Fusion tracks iterations as milestones and versions. If you are using collaborative editing, Fusion tracks iterations as versions and changes, and you should skip to Work with versions in the History dialog (collaborative editing). Check for this icon collaborative editing next to the hub name to confirm collaborative editing is available. Learn about collaborative editing.
