Compare two snapshots

The Compare feature shows the differences between two versions of an application.

  1. In the toolbar, click Compare.
  2. Select the two snapshots you want to compare.
  3. The view highlights:
    • Added objects and links (new in the later snapshot)
    • Removed objects and links (present in the earlier snapshot, removed in the later one)
    • Modified objects (present in both, but changed)

Track the history of one object

The Object History view shows how a specific object changed across all available snapshots.

  1. Right-click an object and select Object history (or a similar option in the Properties panel).
  2. The panel shows a timeline of snapshots, with the status of the object in each one (added, modified, unchanged, removed).

Use the Added/Modified Objects report

To get a full list of changed objects in a structured format, use the built-in report. See Generate built-in data reports.
