Below the switcher and the milestones, the History tab is a timeline. Every save point, every milestone, every incorporate, and every issued revision color is an entry, newest first, with who did it and when. On a shared project that is how you see what a collaborator did while you were away.

## What an entry shows

- The kind — save point, milestone, incorporate, revision — and its label.
- Who made it. On a project with members, the name; on your own, just the time.
- Which draft line it belongs to. The timeline shows the current line by default; switch lines to read another's.

Select any entry to read that version or compare it with the present.

## Filtering

The filter at the top narrows the timeline to milestones only, to one person, or to entries since a date — "what changed since the table read" is one filter. Routine auto-saves sit behind **Show earlier auto-saves**, so the list stays the moments someone chose to keep.

## What it is not

The revision log records versions, not keystrokes. Auto-save runs continuously in the background; the moments someone chose to keep are the entries with a label. If you want a finer record of a working session, make save points more often.

> **Note: Team activity**
>
> A Team workspace also has an activity log in Settings → Organization, covering the workspace itself — members joining, roles changing, credits — rather than any one script. See [Members and roles](https://www.inkwell.software/help/sharing/members-and-roles).

## What next

- [Save points](https://www.inkwell.software/help/version-control/save-points): What a save point is, how it differs from autosave, and what the History tab lets you do with one: read it, compare it, restore it.
- [Mark a milestone](https://www.inkwell.software/help/version-control/milestones): Pin a name to the version you sent out — table read, first studio draft, locked white — so it stays findable in History and exportable as itself.
- [Invite people to a project or workspace](https://www.inkwell.software/help/sharing/members-and-roles): Add collaborators with the role that fits — editor, commenter, or viewer — accept an invitation, and manage a Team workspace's members and seats.
