# Create a Journey Version

To add, remove, reconfigure, or change the order of activities on the Journey Builder canvas, create a draft version of a Marketing Cloud Engagement journey. To prompt contacts to enter the new version, activate the draft.

A journey’s Contact Entry settings persist across all versions. If the previous version is set to readmit a contact only after they exit the journey, contacts in the journey are switched to the new journey. After they exit the previous version, they’re eligible for the new version. If you configure a previous journey version to not readmit contacts, contacts aren’t admitted to the new version.

1. Open the journey and click **New Version**.
    
    An editable view of the current journey appears on the canvas.
2. Make your changes to the journey activities.
3. Save your changes.
4. Click **Activate**.

    Important When a draft is activated, that draft becomes the current version. The version that was current becomes a previous version.
