This article explains how revision control works when files are uploaded with the same name to the same folder, automatically creating versioned revisions. It covers how to upload a new revision, list existing revisions, and open or download a previous version, as well as how to enable automatic file versioning through system settings.

Files are automatically revised when they're uploaded with the same file name to the same folder as a previous version. The latest revision always appears directly in the file list.

Upload a new revision

1. Upload the file with the same file name to the same folder — see Upload files for guidance.
