**Comala Publishing has extended its functionality by adding a ****new ****feature**** - ****Snapshot ****Publishing**

The new **[Snapshot Publishing](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AHP/pages/650215885)** feature can be used to create static versions of a Confluence document at specific moments in time, ensuring that the content remains unchanged and compliant with regulatory or quality standards.

Snapshot Publishing introduces **[Collections](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AHP/pages/650117828)**, our purpose-built document repositories that makes it easier to distribute FAQs, policies, and other documentation

- Confluence macros like **Jira Issues**, **Excerpt Include** or **Metadata**, that display live content will be frozen on each snapshot document version
- Build and manage **Collections** by document type and user permissions, not space permissions
- Publish one page to many **Collections** or many pages to one **Collection**
- Display page metadata
- Manage version control
- Access previous versions
- Choose between HTML or PDF snapshot view in a [global collections viewer](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AHP/pages/650119475)
- Work seamlessly with Comala Document Management to create versioned snapshot documents using the **[snapshot-page macro](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CDML/pages/649694908)** in a workflow trigger
