PingCentral

Reverting templates to previous versions

The history of each OAuth and OIDC template is available to review and compare with previous versions. You can see which administrator modified the template configuration or policy contract, when it was modified, and details regarding these modifications. You can revert templates to previous versions if necessary.

Steps

  1. To review the template history, click the Expand icon associated with the template, and then click the History tab.

  2. Click the Details link associated with each template version to see its configuration.

  3. Click the Diff with Current Version toggle to see the differences between this version and the most recent version.

    This example displays the differences between the selected template and the current template.
  4. To restore this version as the current version, click Restore This Version.

    Result:

    A new version of the template is created that matches the configuration of the version that you want to restore. All applications based on the previous version of this template display an Outdated Template icon next to their names.

Result

The template revision numbers increment on a system-wide level, not on a per-template basis. So the first time any template in PingCentral is changed, it will have a revision of 1. A change made to a completely different template results in a revision of 2, and so forth. Reverting a template generates another revision, which again increments on a system-wide basis.
