The page version is updated to 1,2,3 every time the page is updated. Is it possible to set the page to be updated to 1.1, 1.2, or 1.3?
- When updating the page, I would like to increment the number of minor.
- I want to increment the number of the measure at a specific timing.

Background
I would like to be able to check the difference of the page for each major version from the page history.
There is a method to manage by setting a rule for comments at the time of update as an operation, but there is no guarantee that workers will update according to the rule. If there is a method that can manage on the system, it should be adopted.

Hi @中尾 野風 and welcome to the community.

Short answer... no. Every time you update a page, a new page version is created.

HOWEVER :) 

Method one

You can check the new Live Editing mode, which I believe is currently still in beta. You can work on a page in many iterations without formally saving (updating) it. And only save the 'major' versions.

Method two

Use the 'two-space' method. Basically, you have an app like Comala Document Approval + Comala Publishing or Space Sync for Confluence to sync the content between two spaces.

The idea is that you do all your editing in the Source space and, when the content is ready, you push it to the Target space. You Source will have all the history, your Target will only have the Major Updates history.

And you'll also have a backup space :) 

Method three

Proper versioning. Using Scroll Documents app, you can create snapshots of the entire space as a proper version of your whole documentation. Once all the content is ready, create a snapshot (a virtual space). 

The downside is that this only applies to the entire space, not individual pages, and is best suited for proper semantic versioning. LIke 2.1, 2.2, 2.3... 

Hope that helps

So just to verify, you are looking for a way to version the pages per update?
