Users can create versions (snapshots) of Syndeia projects, mark them as milestones, and compare versions to view the chronological list of events, such as creation, modification, or deletion of connections. This feature is only available when running Syndeia in cloud mode (using Syndeia Cloud).
When the Syndeia Dashboard is launched in cloud mode, it connects to Syndeia Cloud and requests users to select an existing or create a new Syndeia project. Follow the instructions below to learn how to view all the versions, create a new version, and compare versions of a project managed on Syndeia Cloud.
