# Versions

> Manage draft, active, and inactive workflow versions.

Every Config Workflow supports **version management** — allowing you to evolve your routing logic safely without disrupting live traffic.

## Version States

| Status                 | Description                                                         |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Draft**              | Work-in-progress. Not handling live traffic. Edit freely.           |
| **Published (Active)** | The currently deployed version. All live requests use this version. |
| **Inactive**           | A previously published version. Kept for reference and rollback.    |

## Version Lifecycle

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create Draft">
    Every new Config starts as a draft version (e.g., `v0.0.1`). Build your flow, add nodes, and configure routing.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish">
    When ready, click **Published** (dropdown in the top right) and select **Publish**. This makes the version active and starts handling live traffic.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Iterate">
    Create a new draft version to make changes. The published version continues serving traffic while you iterate.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Promote or Rollback">
    Publish the new draft to promote it, or reactivate a previous version to rollback.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Export

Published versions can be **exported** as configuration files using the **Export** button in the top toolbar. This is useful for backup, migration, or infrastructure-as-code workflows.

<Tip>
  Always create a new draft version before making changes. This ensures your live traffic is unaffected while you iterate.
