1Password saves previous versions of items every time you make changes, so you can undo your changes. And when you archive or delete items, you can restore them.
To get started, sign in to your account on 1Password.com.

Permissions can be changed in every vault except the built-in Personal and Private vaults.
If you need to find a password that you previously used, check the password history for the item.
If you’re having trouble restoring an item in a vault, ask your team administrator to check if you have permission to view item history for that vault.
