Review summary history and sources
Read past profile reviews, understand changed or restricted citations, and delete a generated summary.
A category's View history opens earlier reviews and generation attempts. History includes outcomes without a new report, such as no relevant change, insufficient evidence, or a failed attempt.
Read an earlier review
- Open the profile's Summary tab and select View history on a category.
- Choose an entry in Summary history.
- Check its status and Covered dates.
- Read its detailed report when present and expand State at this review to inspect the state recorded then.
- Review Sources. Use Load older history for earlier entries.
The recorded state is historical: its sources may have changed since that review. An unsuccessful attempt has no new successful report to read. A newer attempt also does not automatically replace the last successful state.
Understand citation labels
| Label or behavior | Meaning |
|---|---|
| An available source link | Opens the source subject to your current access. |
| You cannot open this source | Summary access exists, but access to this source is restricted. |
| Source has changed | The cited source was replaced or edited. A profile-detail citation may still open the exact older revision if authorized. |
| Source removed | The cited source is no longer available. |
| No direct source link | The citation has no direct opening action, such as a previous-summary source. |
Current-state statements relying on changed or removed sources are hidden until reviewed again. A source being restricted to you does not itself hide the summary statement. Historical reports and states remain readable with their citation status; they are not rewritten to describe today's evidence.
Source status refreshes when the profile or history loads, and opening a link checks current access. If a link no longer opens, reopen the profile and review the latest status or ask the source owner about access. Use the underlying records to resolve a discrepancy.
Permanently delete a summary
You need Profile AI write access.
- In history, select the successful summary you intend to remove.
- Select Delete this summary.
- Review Delete summary?, then choose Permanently delete summary.
- Wait for the success notice and refreshed history.
This removes that generated report, its citations, and retained AI response. It does not delete source files, Notes, Reports, other summaries, or the record of the generation attempt. There is no undo.
The newest remaining successful summary becomes current. An older fallback is labeled accordingly; if none remains, no successful summary is available. If deletion fails, read the error and retry rather than assuming it succeeded.
