No. If you select a previous version of an asset in DAM and select Set Version as Finalized, the asset embedded in your Drupal content will not update. However, a workaround is available to ensure that the proper asset is displayed after selecting a previous version.

1.  On the Asset Details page, select Switch Version and then select a previous version of the asset.
2.  Edit one of the metadata fields. Drupal will detect this as an update to the asset.
3.  Select Set Version as Finalized.
4.  Check your Drupal page after an hour, and verify that the page displays the previous version of the asset.
