Synchronization functionality lets the user compare and update artifacts created in the source system with a FlowWright target system. The user can synchronize data types, steps, business objects, event definitions, event handlers, event subscribers, menus, dashboards, organization charts, decision tables, themes, users, configuration settings, connections, triggers, process definitions, form definitions, etc.
Package synchronization lets you synchronize a selected item and its dependencies with the target environment. For example, a form definition uses controls, widgets, events, subforms, users, roles, etc. It synchronizes all of these with the target FlowWright environment in one go.
As an admin user, navigate to Status > Synchronize. To sync, first select the source and target FlowWright connections, then click Connect to confirm the connection. If the connection fails, navigate to Integration > Connections and verify the source and target connection strings.
The "Connect HTTP" feature tests HTTP connections according to the configuration. On the first attempt, it connects using HTTP and uses HTTPS if there's no response.
Navigate to the Packages - Forms Definitions menu option.
Search to select the Form Definition.
The Form Definition and its dependencies are displayed as folders. Data/items displayed in “Green” indicate new data/items to synchronize, and “Purple” indicates updates/changes to the data/items.
- Click on the “All” button to select all items (mark all checkboxes)
- Click on “Clear” to unselect the items (unmark checkboxes)
- Click on “Additions Only.” Only the items that are not present in the target database will be selected for synchronization
- Click on “Changes Only.” The updated items in the source database will be selected for synchronization
- Click on the “Synchronization” button. The selected items will be synchronized with the target database.
Click the “Synchronize” button to sync this package with the target environment.
A confirmation message appears in the top-right corner. To view the changes, navigate to the target FW environment and select the Form Definition. This activity is recorded in the Audit Log. Before synchronizing the selected items, the system creates a snapshot of the target database.
