# Restore live

**Restore live** discards draft changes and reverts an item to its last published (live) version in Webflow.

## Restore the live version

Click **OPEN** on an item that has draft changes or is in a non-published state you want to revert.

Click the **⋮** button in the item sheet sidebar, next to the **Publish** button.

Select **Restore live** from the menu.

A dialog titled **Restore live version?** appears. Click **Restore live** to confirm, or cancel to keep your current draft.

## When to use Restore live

Use **Restore live** when you want to:

* Discard all draft edits and return to the last published version
* Undo a series of changes without resetting fields one at a time

## Restore live vs. reset field vs. reload

| Action                                   | Scope                                      | Use when                                        |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------- |
| **Restore live**                         | Entire item — reverts to published version | You want to undo all draft changes officially   |
| **Reset field** (Option/Alt-click label) | Single field                               | You want to undo one field's edit               |
| **Reload from Webflow**                  | Entire item — fetches latest from API      | Webflow may have newer data from another source |

See [Reset a changed field](/reset-changed-field) and [Reload an item from Webflow](/reload-item-from-webflow).

## Availability

**Restore live** appears in the ⋮ menu when the item has a published version to restore to. It is not available for items that have never been published.

## After restoring

The item status and field values reflect the restored live version. Changed-field highlights are cleared.

## Next step

Continue editing with [Open and edit an item](/open-and-edit-item), or [Publish an item](/publish-an-item) when ready.
