Preferences widget version history
Access Type: PMP Widgets - Editor
Premium Feature: Preference Management Platform
The version history for a preferences widget enables your organization to view and track changes that have been configured for a published preferences widget. In this article, we will cover the following for a preferences widget's version history:
Version history is only available for preferences widgets that have been published.
To start, click Preference Management on the left-hand panel and ensure the Widgets tab is selected on the subsequent page.
Navigate to a preferences widget on the list and click the Edit icon inline with the preferences widget name.
Create new preferences widget version
A new version of the preferences widget is created any time your organization publishes the preferences widget.
Since preferences widgets with a Draft status have never been published the version history page for the widget will be unavailable.
From the preferences widget configuration flow, perform any necessary edits to the widget and click Publish when finished.
A subsequent modal will confirm that your organization's preferences widget is published. Click Continue.
A version of the preferences widget will be added to the version history for that widget.
View preferences widget version
To view versions for a preferences widget, navigate to the preferences configuration flow for a published preferences widget and click See version history.
From the version history page, the left-hand History panel provides a list of all published versions of the preferences widget. Each version will include:
Current
Indicates the latest (or current) version of the preferences widget on websites where the widget is deployed/embedded.
Date
Date the version of the preferences widget was published.
Time
Time the version of the preferences widget was published.
Publication ID
Unique identifier for the publication of the preferences widget. This ID can be used to view the deployment via the Didomi API. Click here to learn more.
Click Choose a date to filter the list of versions in the History panel by a specific periodization.
Select any version from the History panel. The left-hand panel will automatically refresh to display the version of the preferences widget that was published.
If the preferences widget supported more than one language, your organization can change the display to that specific language by using the Languages drop-down menu.
Inspection mode
Inspector mode allows your organization to view the difference between the content figured for purposes and preferences on the widget and what is originally stored in the configuration tree. Enable the Inspector mode toggle to view the display of a preferences widget version in inspector mode.
Navigate to the display and hover over an element in the preferences widget. An informational tooltip will provide the original copy as reflected in your organization's configuration tree.
Download preferences widget version JSON
The version JSON is the configuration used when the selected version of the preferences widget was published. To download the JSON file to your local machine, navigate to a version of the preferences widget in the right-hand side History panel.
Click the ellipsis and select Download JSON.
The JSON file will be download to your local machine.
