Version Control (without GitHub option) Not Showing History

I installed FME Flow 2024 and configured it to have Version Control on (without the GitHub option). I published a workspace from FME Form. Then, in FME Form, I altered the workspace (added a transformer) and re-published it, replacing the first version.

However, when I click History, I get zero results, both at the top-Workspaces level and at the repository level.

Anyone have insight to add to this?

I assume you enabled Version control in Flow UI

When you publish from Form to Flow, are you using the “Commit” button to stamp the history with records

Hello ,

Please review this document to ensure that you have correctly configured version cintrol https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Flow/WebUI/Version-Control.htm

We also have a troublehooting guide - https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407577604365-FME-Flow-Troubleshooting-Version-Control

Does the form to flow publishing of the 2nd version of the workspace complete sucessfully ? Which version do you see when you access workspace on the Flow Web UI ?

Are you publishing the 2nd workspace version with the same name and location as the version 1  ?

I was just missing the Commit button in the Publish to FME Flow dialog. Thank you ​@j.botterill .

 

When I re-publish the workspace--with clicking Commit and adding to version history, the version does show up when searching History in FME Flow.

 

I noticed that, in order to have the first version available in History, it needs a Commit. So, seemingly, if the first and subsequent versions of a workspace need to be retained, it’s important to always Commit--even w/ the first one.
