Q: On Cisco SD-WAN IOS-XEs , what CLI command do i use to look at the list of last few committed configs

A: show archive config

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/ios/config/17-x/syst-mgmt/b-system-management/m_cm-config-versioning.html

 also where on the UI 

A: To view the config history on the Cisco SD-WAN vManage UI, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to vManage.
  2. Navigate to Configuration > Config History.
  3. Click on the Config History tab.
  4. You will see a list of all committed configurations, including the timestamp, user, and changes made.

Q: Also, how do i save snapshots of configs before i make a config change , then revert to that snapshot when i want to rollback?

A:  You can take an on-demand snapshot of Cisco SD-WAN Manager configuration when needed. In general, take a snapshot before any major change window. When you take an on-demand snapshot, freeze configuration changes and allocate up to 8 hours before the change window to allow the snapshot to be completed. An on-demand snapshot is stored for 3 months from the date of its creation, then it is deleted automatically. A new on-demand snapshot replaces a stored existing one, so only one on-demand snapshot is stored at a time.

  1. From the Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Portal, navigate to the list of available overlays.

    The Dashboard > Overlays page appears.

  2. Click the name of the overlay for which you want to take a snapshot.

  3. From the Dashboard > Cisco Hosted Overlays > Details page, click the Snapshot tile.

  4. From the Actions drop-down menu, choose On-Demand Snapshot.

  5. In the On-Demand Snapshot area, turn on the switch for the Cisco SD-WAN Manager instance for which you want to take the snapshot.

    For a Cisco SD-WAN Manager cluster, turn on the switches for each Cisco SD-WAN Manager instance in the cluster.

  6. Click Submit.

    The snapshot is created. The creation process can take up 8 hours to complete, depending on the amount of data in Cisco SD-WAN Manager.

  7. To restore a snapshot, select the desired snapshot from the list and click on the Restore button.

Thank you for your reply. I was referring to the ability to view just the config lines that get pushed down via Netconf to the CPE each time a commit is performed on the UI.
I do not see an option like this on vmanage - Configuration > Config History
[cid:image001.png@01DAECC6.394EB470]
And, the snapshot for the whole of vmanage sounds like a great feature. Thanks ! But, I'm looking for taking individual device config snapshots before I push changes out. Is there any such.
Thanks
