Version History can now generate publish notes automatically. When you use the new Publish with Notes, it creates a summary of the version notes written since last publish. It gives you and your team a record of what actually went live, without the manual final write-up. This was one of your top requests when we redesigned Place Version History. Publish notes will stay optional, and you will keep full control over what is saved. You can write, edit, and dismiss any summary.
Better Notes In, Better Summary Out
Publish notes are generated from the version notes your team writes between Publish versions. No version notes, no summary. The more your team logs along the way, the better and more accurate your summary will be. Everyone can jot a quick note on their own saves, and on Publish with Notes it is all pulled into one place. You get a complete picture of what your whole team shipped, without needing to chase anyone down.
Two Ways to Generate Notes
You can generate a summary in Studio via File > Publish with Notes.
Or, you can open the Version History tab (Window > Version History) and choose Edit Notes on a published version.

FAQs
Does the AI write notes automatically every time I publish?
No. Only when pressing Publish With Notes, AI-generated summaries are automatically drafted for you, but writing them to your version notes is always an explicit action you take after editing and refining the notes. We may explore more automation tooling in the future based on your feedback.
Does this replace manual publish notes?
You can always choose to keep or edit the generated publish notes, we will never publish anything without your manual approval.
What does the summary pull from?
The summary is generated from all of your version notes between the current and past publish, no additional information is generated. If there are no notes between the current and past publish, no notes will be generated. In the future we want the summaries to draw directly from the changes in your place file itself, so the summary reflects what actually changed.
This is pretty cool, but I would like it more if it could use ai to figure out things that you changed and write the report off of that, not just what you have written in the other versions.
This is brilliant Roblox - It will be very helpful - especially when in Teams.
Ai LOGS:
Not always (but when I need it) - I tell the Ai to make Logs (disabled script file) of it’s recent changes.
It is part of my “preferences in Codex” - to Summarize it’s changes/improvements/debugging in a designated Folder in Explorer (EG: Workspace/Logs/v109) - and if I ever need more info - I can look there & get a very Detailed summary).
This saves me from having to detail everything myself.
can you fix constant false flags from the automated moderation system and fix chat suspension exploit that was reported to you over 3 months ago please?
Double-check which version you are editing the notes of. The “Generate” button will only appear on published versions. Let me know if this is still an issue, thanks!
