Get Previous Version

The Get Previous Version Data widget allows a workflow to query and return the value of a field for the previous version of an item if Item Versioning is enabled in the targeted SharePoint list.

Icon-Warning IMPORTANT: This widget requires versioning to be enabled in the targeted list.

NOTE: This widget is available in Workflow Conductor version 3.5 or later.

Widget Properties:

Field Description
Select Item/Field: Select either the current item on which the workflow is being run, or select a different item using a Lookup, then select the field whose previous value will be returned.
Select Version:

Select the version of the item that will be queried. The available choices are:

Last Minor Version (default): Returns the previous value of the defined field from the most recently saved minor version of the item. If minor versioning is not enabled, the value of the previous major version will still be returned.

Last Major Version: Returns the previous value of the defined field from the most recently saved major version of the item. If minor versioning is not enabled, this is the same as the previous version of the item.

Oldest Version: Returns the value of the defined field from the oldest available item version.

Save Value To: Select the variable that will store the value that is returned. The variable type must be compatible with the field data being returned.
