Happy collaborating!
We're excited to announce an important addition to our API capabilities. You can now manage and access content revision history programmatically with our new Revisions API endpoints. These endpoints allow you to track changes to your content over time and restore previous versions as needed.
1. Get Revisions Endpoint and SDK Method
The new endpoint allows you to retrieve a list of all revisions for a specific Object. This gives you a complete history of changes made to your content.
REST API:
GET /v3/buckets/:bucket_slug/objects/:object_id/revisions
With the JavaScript SDK, you can easily access revisions:
await cosmic.objectRevisions.find('object-id').props([
'id',
'title',
'created_at',
'status'
]).limit(10)
2. Single Revision Endpoint and SDK Method
The new endpoint allows you to retrieve a specific revision by its ID. This is useful when you need to examine or restore a particular version of your content.
REST API:
GET /v3/buckets/:bucket_slug/objects/:object_id/revisions/:revision_id
With the JavaScript SDK:
await cosmic.objectRevisions.findOne({
objectId: 'object-id',
revisionId: 'revision-id'
}).props([
'id',
'title',
'metadata',
'created_at'
])
3. Add a Revision API
You can now programmatically create new revisions of your content using the API, giving you more control over your content versioning:
await cosmic.objectRevisions.insertOne('object-id', {
title: 'Updated Blog Post Title',
metadata: {
content: 'This is the updated content for the blog post...',
featured_post: true
},
status: 'draft'
})
Documentation Updates
Full documentation for these new endpoints is available at https://www.cosmicjs.com/docs/api/revisions.
New LLMS Resource for AI-Enhanced Workflows
We've also added a new resource for developers using AI in their workflows. You can now access the raw markdown content of our documentation at
https://www.cosmicjs.com/docs/llms.txt
or by appending .md
to any documentation URL (e.g., https://www.cosmicjs.com/docs/api/objects.md
). You can also find a new Copy Page button on the top right of each page. This makes it easier to use our documentation with AI code assistants and LLM tools.Each blog post now includes a Copy Markdown button at the top of the page which enables you to paste into your code editor. Check out the Spotify clone article to create this app in a single prompt.
These enhancements give you more power to track, manage, and restore content throughout its lifecycle. We're committed to providing the tools you need to create and maintain exceptional content experiences.

Questions about our new AI features? Contact our support team for assistance.
We have shipped a couple of updates to the dashboard to improve the content editing experience.
AI text generation context
We have included new options to reference other Object metafields in AI text generation. In the Object form, the generate text modal now includes the ability to select from multiple Metafields on your Object for reference. This makes it easier to create summaries, SEO descriptions, and other actions that require Object data context.

Data loss prevention
We have fixed data loss risks on Objects. Before, it was possible to update your Metafields and navigate to a new page or close the browser tab and lose your changes.
Now if you have unsaved data and try to navigate away from the page, a pop-up message is triggered, asking if you want to leave without saving the changes.

Follow and share in the changelog.
We have a few quality of life improvements to the dashboard to share:
New features
Bucket Import append option
You can now append data into your Bucket using a new Import Mode option. Instead of replacing all data and media in your Bucket, it will append to the existing data. Note: It will not import Object types with existing Object type slugs.

Bucket export media option
You now have the option to include / exclude media from your export.

Go to Your Project > Settings > Import / Export to see the new feature.
API Keys
It's common practice to add environment variables to a
.env
file. We've made this process easier with a single click from the API keys page. It looks like this:COSMIC_BUCKET_SLUG=your_bucket_slug
COSMIC_READ_KEY=your_read_key
COSMIC_WRITE_KEY=your_write_key
Go to Your Project > API keys to see the new feature.
Improvements
Object Metafield list
We've removed the external link icon and disabled opening the link in a new window.
Fixes
Object thumbnail
We've had reports of issues saving objects when the thumbnail has been removed, or edited in the media library. This issue has been fixed.
Draft only permission
There was an update made that enabled users with draft status only enabled to be able to get around this and set scheduled publish. This has been fixed.
