Feature Request - Apply Config Comment / Snapshot Comment

Post by gregbeyer »

I have a featured request to make snapshots more useful. Snapshot are taken when applying config. They're given a name such as "Snapshot 1718740019" which tells me nothing about what change I made especially when I've done several in succession.

Sure, I can open Diff Changes and figure out what I was doing, but do I want to go thru a long list of snapshots to figure out where I created / altered a config?

I suggest an optional text field be presented when clicking Apply Config, "Comment", perhaps 50 chars allowed. Admin can provide comment on what he was doing. That comment is presented in the Configuration Shapshots list to jog memory, help find the snapshot needed.

Hello @gregbeyer,

Thank you for reaching out!

I have submitted a feature request for the ability to add a comment or label for the snapshots, however I am unable to provide a time estimation on when it would be implemented. I would recommend keeping an eye on the changelog here, to see when it would have been implemented!

If you have any other questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to reach out!
