Represents a specific version of an Asset, containing the actual content and metadata. Asset Versions are the core entities for version control, compliance tracking, and content management in Posta.

Key aspects:

  • Content: Can be HTML templates (with variable support), images, fonts, or documents (e.g., PDFs).
  • Status: Determines the overall status of the parent Asset (draft, published, archived, or deleted).
  • Version Control: Allows tracking changes and maintaining multiple iterations of an Asset.
  • Compliance: Facilitates auditing and regulatory compliance through versioning.

HTML templates can use variables for dynamic content. Images and fonts can be referenced as variables within HTML templates. Documents (like PDFs) are static and used for rendering documents without dynamic components.
