# Versioning

#### Overview

Flows uses a simple and effective versioning system to manage changes to your workflows. This ensures that you can safely test and improve automations without disrupting what's currently running.

#### Drafts and Published Versions

When you create a new Flow, it starts in Draft mode. A Flow must have at least one Trigger and one Action before it can be published. Once published, it becomes active and is labeled as version v1.

#### Making Changes

Want to make updates to your workflow? Here’s how versioning works:

- When you **Edit** an active workflow, Flows automatically creates a **draft** of the current version.
- The **published version (e.g., v1)** remains active and continues to run until the new draft is published.
- You can **add, remove, or modify the actions and the trigger** in the draft.

#### Publishing a New Version

Once you're done editing:

- Hit **Publish** to make your changes live.
- The draft is promoted to the next version **(e.g., v2)**.
- The previous version (**v1**) is **archived** but safely stored.
- The new version becomes the **active** workflow.

#### Discarding a Draft

If you change your mind:

- You can **discard** the draft at any time.
- The last **published version (e.g., v1)** remains active and unchanged.
