There are several ways tn invite reviewers. However, you can even lead your reviewers to a specific file in the review step or version of a file.
How exactly do the review links work?
Review link from the project overview
If you copy the review link from the project overview, this link will always point to the latest version of the file. If you upload a new version, the existing link will also point to the new version.
Review link from the file view
If you copy a review link from the file view, this link will always point to this exact version of your file. If you then upload a new version, the existing link will still point to the same version as before.
Moving files to a different step
When you move a file to a different step, the previous link will still point to the version on the previous step. This is because each review step has a separate review link, helping you control files that certain reviewers are meant to see.
Manually change the review link version
Which version a link goes to is achieved through the suffix that you can see at the end of the URL, annotated by /v#. If you remove this suffix, the link will point to the latest version again. We added this functionality because it can be helpful to direct the reviewer to a specific version.
For example:
url.com/v1 -- points to the first version
url.com/v2 -- points to the second version
url.com -- points to the latest version in that review step
