Viewing and Restoring Pipeline Versions

Follow the steps below to view and restore the versions:

  1. Click "Pipelines" tab and "Select the application" for which you want to edit the pipeline and then Click "Configure" to modify a pipeline as shown below.

2. Click the "Pipeline Actions" from drop-down and select "View Revision History".
