# Editing the Current Draft

> In Explo, versions follow a linear history. You always start editing off of the most recent version of the dashboard or report builder.

### Entering Edit Mode

To begin editing the most recent version, click the "Edit" button in the top
right of the page.

In the above example, there is no current draft since Version 3 has already been
publish. Thus, when you click Edit, it will create a new draft, Version 5.

After clicking edit, the editing controls will open up. In here, you
can create new datasets, add new components, and configure the chart.

### Saving Changes

All changes that you make to the elements, layout, and dataset are
automatically saved to the current draft

When you refresh the page or come back to your edits later, they will still be
there. However, since this is jut a draft, the edits will not be pushed to your
production applications until they have been published.
