Every change to a process map creates a new version, giving you a complete history.

To navigate versions:

  1. In the top bar, look for the version indicator (e.g. v1 of 3).
  2. Use the left and right arrows to browse previous and later versions.
  3. Each version is saved automatically — you never lose your work.

Can I delete one version?

No. BA Copilot does not currently expose a customer action for deleting an individual saved version. Versions form the process map history.

Keep only the version you want to share

If you want a clean process map without exposing the original map’s earlier versions or chat history:

  1. Use the version arrows to open the version you want to keep.
  2. Click Copy process map.
  3. In Save as Process Map, give the copy a clear title and choose its workspace and status.
  4. Leave Copy all versions turned off. Only the version currently on screen is copied, and it becomes version 1 of the new process map.
  5. Open the new independent process map and share or publish that map using the normal access controls for its workspace.

The copied process map is independent. Its viewers do not see the original process map’s version history or the chat that produced it, and the original map remains unchanged.

Start a separate chat from the clean copy

Open the independent process map and click Start Chat. BA Copilot creates a new chat using that process map, without carrying over the original conversation history.

If you simply want to keep iterating on the existing map, return to the version you want and continue editing; the next saved change creates another version. Deleting the whole process map removes its full version history and is a different, irreversible action.
