How can I view the version history of a Survey in a Library?
Hi,
I’ve made several versions of a Survey in my Library and I’d like to be able to compare two of them. The only issue, I don’t know how to access the versions.
Is it possible to view saved versions, and if so, how?
If it’s not possible, then what is the purpose of saving versions in a Library?
Thank you,

Hi @jackier,
There are 3 main uses for surveys in your Library:
To share static surveys to a group or organization.
To use in conjunction with the Reference Survey feature to insert the same set of questions and logic into multiple surveys.
It’s like a final static template that you save in a bookshelf and use later. It should be completed already, not in developing with different versions.
---------------------- If you still making change in your Survey, Qualtrics actually auto-save the version for you
Hope this helps
Hi Nam,
Thank you for your response. It does help. But, I'm still a tad unsure. Is this correct:
If I have a reference to a survey from within a survey, if I make a change to the survey that's referenced (i.e., the survey in the library), is there a version history with the change made to the referenced survey? I'm guessing no. Is that correct?

@jackier Honestly I don’t know because I haven’t tried it. Why don’t you test yourself it and find out?
@jackier, you're right. it doesn't provide a version history or change log for modifications made to referenced content. If you happen to find an alternative workaround, feel free to share!
Hi Umang,
Thank you for confirming. If I find a workaround, I’ll definitely share it.
