Restore a Previous Version of a Dashboard

Here’s how to restore a previous version of a dashboard.

1. Click the button at upper right.
   
2. Select the Version tab to see a list of previous versions of the dashboard.
   
3. Click the links (Change 1, Change 2, and so on) to view previous versions. The text under the links provides a brief description of the version if one was added to the Version History field the last time someone saved the dashboard.
4. When you see the one you want to restore, click the disk icon and then click Save. It’s a good idea to enter a brief description of what’s unique about this version in the Version History field for future reference.

Warning When you restore a previous version, the dashboard doesn’t run as expected if it depends on a dashboard, dataset, or lens that’s been deleted. If you get an error when you load a restored version of a dashboard, try restoring older versions until you get one that works. You can use that one as a starting point to rebuild the dashboard with errors.
