# Pending changes

> Changes saved onto a published version, waiting to go live.

A published version can take a limited set of additions without a new version:

* new properties
* new segments
* new relations
* facets enabled on a property

Saving one of these does not make it live. The version moves to the **Pending changes** status, and **Publish** reappears in the header.

## Spotting them

| Where                 | What you see                                                     |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| The status card       | **Pending changes** instead of **Published**                     |
| The **Endpoints** tab | A count badge of endpoints holding unpublished changes           |
| The tree              | Pending checkboxes and icons rendered in orange rather than blue |
| **Filter by**         | The **Pending content** filter, listing only those properties    |

## Publish or discard

To make them live, click **Publish** and confirm. Studio lists an **Updates impact** warning for each change that carries risk on a live API.

An endpoint with pending changes also offers a control to restore it to its published content, discarding everything unpublished on that endpoint.

<Warning>
  Restoring discards every pending change on that endpoint at once, not just the last one, and cannot be undone.
</Warning>

<Info>
  Changes that would break the existing contract — removing a property, renaming an alias, adding an endpoint or a language — cannot be made pending at all. Those controls are disabled on a published version; use [a new version](/guides/studio/destinations/create-a-version).
