Drag-and-drop promotion
Promote product apps between two environments
In this basic scenario, we’ll see how to promote products in the Environments dashboard using drag-and-drop functionality. This quick, visual method allows you to move applications across two environments in a few simple steps.
Context
In the Environments dashboard, we see the cf-101 product, in the dev and qa environments.
Linked applications
Mouse over cf-101 displays the linked applications in each environment, cf-101-dev and cf-101-qa.
Product versions
cf-101 has different versions in dev and qa environments.
Promotion with drag-and-drop
To promote, we’ll drag cf-101-dev from dev and drop it into cf-101 in the qa environment.
Commit changes page
The Commit Changes page shows the action used for the promotion, the files, and the properties in the files that will be changed. Review the files and properties that will be updated as part of this promotion action.
Release creation and completion
After commit, a release is automatically created for cf-101 with a new Release ID.
Clicking View Release Details takes you to the release view.
Wait for the release to complete, and then return to the Releases page to view the Release ID updated with the current status.
