Sheet Version History

Every edit to a sheet — adding fields, running transformations, importing data — is saved as a version. You can view that history at any time and restore any earlier state, including the complete schema, validation rules, enrichments, formulas, and record data, without losing the work you’ve done since.

How versions are created

Obvious saves a new version automatically whenever your sheet’s structure or data changes: adding or updating fields, running transformations, importing data, or applying validation rules. Nothing to configure.

View and restore versions

Ask the agent to pull up your sheet’s history — Show me the version history for this sheet — and it returns a list of recent versions, newest-first, with a version number, who made the change, when it happened, and a summary of what changed. Once you’ve found the version you want, tell the agent to restore it: Restore this sheet to version 3, or by time: Restore this sheet to how it looked yesterday at 2pm. Obvious applies that version’s schema, rules, and data to your sheet. Your current state is saved as its own version, so you can always go forward again if you change your mind.

Good to Know

Each version captures the complete sheet state: field definitions, validation rules, enrichments, formulas, and record data. Restoring a version doesn’t erase history — each restore creates a new timeline entry, giving you a full audit trail of every change and every restore. If a teammate or the agent edits the sheet while you’re working, those changes are captured automatically.
