How can you go back to a previous version of a feature description after you have saved changes (which should be undone) - we can see the version history via the button below on comments, but I don't see how we can select a previous version.

 

thx

Hi @Alex_Curtoud_EXT 

You can only see description changes in History; however, the formatting isn't preserved. 

If you are open to using add-ons, you can check the one developed by my team. Here is the documentation: Revert changes made to the description

Hi @Alex_Curtoud_EXT -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

There is no built-in "undo" feature for such changes.

As you note, some of the information is shown in the issue history, and that could be used to manually revert the changes.  There may be marketplace apps / addons which add this capability.

Kind regards,
Bill

Thanks for you fast reply !

I was mixing jira with confluence.  In confluence you have a very nice feature via which you can go back to the previous version.  But in jira you don't have this, thanks for confirming this.

The answer depends on which tool or software is being discussed. However, if it's about Atlassian Jira or Confluence, the response could be something like this:
