Does anyone know why the version history for teachers when viewing student work is disabled for CSA? I can see the version history in CSP but not CSA. I need this in order to check for valid process by students on projects.

@klkennel - thank you for your post. I too discovered that I cannot view the students version history in CSA. It would be a very useful feature for all the Code.org courses.
I will ask the curriculum team and post a response when I receive one.
Stay warm, Sylvia

would this help at all…? i know this is probably tedious but this base path should be available in all projects if you really need to access the version history now instead of waiting on a solution. just replace <id> with the project id you need the versions of to view them
then you can just add in the parameter ?version=<version id> from the project you want to view by adding it after the project link after a query
for instance
https://studio.code.org/projects/<type>/<id>/view?version=<version id>

Hi @klkennel, this is a very useful feature and I’m sure the development team would like this feedback. If you email support@code.org and request this feature it should get put on their radar. Also, hopefully more people request this as well and I think the more requests something gets the higher up the priority queue it goes.
@varrience, that would be a clever work around but I need a bit more of a walkthrough. Here is a link to one of my students projects. How would I go about using your method to see their version history?
Best,

hmm well in java stuff it seems to be slightly different, since i am not apart of your classroom i don’t think i am able to see your students work, however if you are able to you should be able to pull it off
not sure exactly how it would apply to specific students but this would return a version history from a specific project path from there
and then to view that version you simply add it in
https://studio.code.org/s/csa4-2024/lessons/11/levels/1?version=upbgGTw8yMDCqwZqHB46Z9vPMh1pYoFW&viewAs=Instructor
is how i assume this would work since i assume the teachers are capable of viewing the current students work it should also have the version history you just have to substitute the link in
I was able to chat with Code.org support. The curriculum and development teams are aware of this usefulness of this feature. They are working on a solution. There is not a date on when this feature will be available.
