[ARCHIVED] Revert Button

[ssukow]

There is an undelete section in Canvas, but it is limited. There is no revert button or change history as there is in Google. If a mistake is made, it is very hard if not impossible to revert back to a previous version.

Can Canvas create a revert button that allows me to fix small mistakes easily by reverting to a previous version of Canvas?

Hi  @ssukow 

But there is just such a feature.  You can view page history, then choose a previous version.

• Click the ellipses (vertical row of three dots) at the upper right of a page,

 

• In the pop-up menu, choose "View page History",
• From the list provided, choose the version you want to reverts to.

You can learn more at https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-13137-4152101244?sr=search&searchId=79be6b0a-72f8-4ebf-8af7... 

I hope this is helpful,

It doesn't seem to be an option for a quiz I overwrote...

Unfortunately,  @michael_robinso  , this is only available on Pages.

Canvas Support can likely revert your quiz to a previous version, and you can contact them using the Help link in Global navigation. Depending on the way support is configured at your school, you might need to go through your Canvas Admin.
