When you create a Route Resource in the Integration perspective of Talend Studio, by default its version is 0.1 where 0 stands for the major version and 1 for the minor version.

You can create many versions of the same Route Resource. To do that:

1. Close your Route Resource if it is open on the design workspace, otherwise, its properties will be read-only and thus you can not modify them.

2. In the Repository tree view, right-click your Route Resource and select Edit properties in the drop-down list.

   The Edit properties dialog box is opened.

3. Next to the Version field, click the M button to increment the major version and the m button to increment the minor version.

4. Click Finish to validate the modification.

Information noteNote: By default, when you open a Route Resource, you open its last version.

To change the version of your Route Resource, you can also:

1. Close your Route Resource if it is open on the design workspace, otherwise, its properties will be read-only and thus you can not modify them.

2. In the Repository tree view, right-click your Route Resource and select Open another version in the context menu. ![Open another version option.](https://help.qlik.com/talend/en-US/studio-user-guide/Resources/images/route_resources-open_another_version.png)

3. In the dialog box, select the Create check box and click the M button to increment the major version and the m button to increment the minor version.

   ![Open another version dialog box.](https://help.qlik.com/talend/en-US/studio-user-guide/Resources/images/route_resources-open_another_version_dialog_1.png)

4. Click Finish to validate the modification and open this new version of your Route Resource.

You can also save a Route Resource and increment its version in the same time, by clicking File > Save as....

Information noteNote: This option does not overwrite your current Route Resource. It saves your Route Resource as another new Route Resource with another version.

You can access a list of different versions of the Route Resource. To do that:

1. Right-click it in the Repository tree view and select Open another version in the context menu. ![Open another version dialog box.](https://help.qlik.com/talend/en-US/studio-user-guide/Resources/images/route_resources-open_another_version_dialog_2.png)
2. Select the version of the Route Resource you want to edit and click Finish to open it in the design workspace.
