## What it does

### Working drafts

Working drafts with autosave, and a side-by-side comparison of two versions of the same language.

See who else is editing a document, and take over deliberately.

Limit: Autosave keeps one recovery point per document and author, not per language.

### Version history

Every save that changes the content is recorded as a version, drafts included.

Compare two versions of the same language and restore an earlier one from the admin; restoring saves the current state first.

Limit: Turn on versions and Nextly keeps a version history: by default the newest 50 versions of each document, plus each language’s latest published version, every version you name and every restore point.

[Content Releases](https://nextlyhq.com/docs/releases.md)

## In the admin

- Preview saved drafts beside the entry editor, and share a signed preview link that expires. [Docs](https://nextlyhq.com/docs/preview.md)
- An activity feed of who created, changed or deleted entries, and a security audit trail. [Docs](https://nextlyhq.com/docs/audit-log.md)

## In your code

- Pages that read through Nextly’s cached queries update when their content changes. [Docs](https://nextlyhq.com/docs/guides/isr-caching.md)
- Background jobs, run by calling one endpoint from your scheduler. [Docs](https://nextlyhq.com/docs/jobs.md)
- Signed webhooks for content, media, user and form events, with retries, a delivery log, redelivery and secret rotation. [Docs](https://nextlyhq.com/docs/webhooks.md)
