Choose what is versioned

Go to Revisionary → Settings → Content types. Each content type of your project is listed with the space its history takes.

One row per content type: a switch to version it, where changes are captured from, excluded fields and its own retention.

Option	What it does
Capture from	Where changes are recorded from: Content Manager, REST API, GraphQL, Document Service (your own code) and Cron & imports. Turn off a source to ignore it.
Excluded fields	Fields that are never stored in a version. Use it for secrets, counters and computed values.
Autosaves	How long autosaves of this type are kept. Global setting follows the Retention section.
Versions per entry	The most versions kept per entry and locale. The oldest go first.

Fields that can never be restored

Some fields should never go back to an old value, like a slug that is already indexed. List them in config/plugins.ts under lockedFields. They still appear in the differences, marked as locked.
