Changing the notebook to private will remove the paused version. You can still access other versions of the notebook in the following ways. - Navigate versions through the history pane:

- Click the **Paused/Latest** element in the notebook header and choosing to view the paused/latest version of the notebook by clicking the link presented in the popover:

- Add the version aliases `@latest` or `@paused` to the notebook URL: - `https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/pause-live-edits-in-public-notebooks@latest` - `https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/pause-live-edits-in-public-notebooks@paused` If these version aliases are used with a notebook that hasn't been paused, the latest version of the notebook will be shown.46:[{"id":"2cc390830396f9ed55ac3ad1033d722c8bb10ed5cbcad72351da27095e7433d394d50c09e30efa2ae201cd3ffb96531b2431e14e8d84b00d5f0fd8f6531025ed","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/2cc390830396f9ed55ac3ad1033d722c8bb10ed5cbcad72351da27095e7433d394d50c09e30efa2ae201cd3ffb96531b2431e14e8d84b00d5f0fd8f6531025ed","name":"menu-resume.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1671045072314.22,"size":21045},{"id":"eaa0556a04c88450ed2573ed837653ec81d664b055599482d81b89c96757bb310565e1bde204f7542e063d5ce9d0ac5e81ee7fef57960dde3f16e1d11dfdd200","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/eaa0556a04c88450ed2573ed837653ec81d664b055599482d81b89c96757bb310565e1bde204f7542e063d5ce9d0ac5e81ee7fef57960dde3f16e1d11dfdd200","name":"menu-pause.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1671044899086.696,"size":20703},{"id":"4d2ee968f67020e91ecb40300bd90e9f423d7c322632fcdc20635728cf57929f62a9bf9eff88b8c352873e8e48a5939e54d7ca8f9f5efeae0a3b4602825206ad","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/4d2ee968f67020e91ecb40300bd90e9f423d7c322632fcdc20635728cf57929f62a9bf9eff88b8c352873e8e48a5939e54d7ca8f9f5efeae0a3b4602825206ad","name":"popout-paused@3.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1671047834467.908,"size":109748},{"id":"2bf7c14a7b5279ec7186369278342754e017f8cd4580fb0ca7f94c661122fd124fbfd3154c55288d633208c0f58e930c1ead704cf10a085cbb7947006ff3f8bc","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/2bf7c14a7b5279ec7186369278342754e017f8cd4580fb0ca7f94c661122fd124fbfd3154c55288d633208c0f58e930c1ead704cf10a085cbb7947006ff3f8bc","name":"history@1.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1671047674470,"size":41001},{"id":"58994beddb4e97c0c8154a33cc7c34c77a920d57d77b25cff829adfb43f9a775f5537a6ca3f82a130ba59d119a69645dffaec4cdc665e76357df37d8d3cf2a90","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/58994beddb4e97c0c8154a33cc7c34c77a920d57d77b25cff829adfb43f9a775f5537a6ca3f82a130ba59d119a69645dffaec4cdc665e76357df37d8d3cf2a90","name":"republish-action.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1671047067110.609,"size":4489},{"id":"e135be50219535e8308fe7ace69edf9da4b23327dfb75e9de0517412c0b8cb204a8c0d8e0fd6eeac9eff70507a6953c0b92897993fd5d7634206ab96a6c9ff64","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/e135be50219535e8308fe7ace69edf9da4b23327dfb75e9de0517412c0b8cb204a8c0d8e0fd6eeac9eff70507a6953c0b92897993fd5d7634206ab96a6c9ff64","name":"popout-latest@3.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1671046787156.925,"size":136123},{"id":"83e77126a1d0c30db6a0c7874b08649c0add3547eb5d8632cebd843b95dcabda0d4b5d8562e3295d1b3c2e2de2fa5a3631944ecd99d8f729d87a5c21c86d8abf","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/83e77126a1d0c30db6a0c7874b08649c0add3547eb5d8632cebd843b95dcabda0d4b5d8562e3295d1b3c2e2de2fa5a3631944ecd99d8f729d87a5c21c86d8abf","name":"pause-live-edits.m4v","type":"video/mp4","lastModified":1671049515562.329,"size":334274},{"id":"f635c6dd43ead253d2b77669e2afd0eb3d51204e2c3f6b4974eafe8ff70ac62355435a4e666dbca81b4c14854fa2f6582f14b1dac891b3b330e6fa8d895f78ce","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/f635c6dd43ead253d2b77669e2afd0eb3d51204e2c3f6b4974eafe8ff70ac62355435a4e666dbca81b4c14854fa2f6582f14b1dac891b3b330e6fa8d895f78ce","name":"pauseMenu_v4.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1671056418876.458,"size":43647},{"id":"cde55b2022e09efbbb52b5d40ea609429e7c8d88574cc4fb3e3c412be9033a192d4248dbfc9cfc687cb83d65cd4f8a32062452156a9e18cc4d727fdd50b0d09d","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/cde55b2022e09efbbb52b5d40ea609429e7c8d88574cc4fb3e3c412be9033a192d4248dbfc9cfc687cb83d65cd4f8a32062452156a9e18cc4d727fdd50b0d09d","name":"resumeMenu_v3.png","type":"image/png","lastModified":1671056418876.458,"size":44256}]
