# Deploy a prompt to your application using versions in Prompt management
<a name="prompt-management-deploy"></a>

When you save your prompt, you create a *draft version* of it. You can keep iterating on the draft version by modifying the prompt and its configurations and saving it.

When you're ready to deploy a prompt to production, you create a version of it to use in your application. A version is a snapshot of your prompt that you create at a point in time when you are iterating on the working draft of the prompt. Create versions of your prompt when you are satisfied with a set of configurations. Versions allow you to easily switch between different configurations for your prompt and update your application with the most appropriate version for your use-case.
