How do I restore an earlier version of my script?

If your script still exists but you need an earlier version of it — for example, after a conflicted copy, an accidental overwrite, or after the file was opened in another PDF app — Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive all keep file version history. Log in to your cloud provider on the web, find the version from before things went wrong, and restore it.

Restore an earlier version from your cloud provider

⚠️ HEADS UP: Files stored in iCloud Drive or On My iPad / On My iPhone don't have version history, so they can't be rolled back to an earlier state. If an older copy was deleted, check Recently Deleted — see I accidentally deleted my script. How do I recover it?.

💡 TIP: For production work we recommend Dropbox. It has the most reliable file version history and the cleanest restore flow.

Still stuck?

Tap the Send us an email button at the bottom of this page. Include the name of the file, which cloud provider stores it, and roughly when the version you want existed.
