A release wraps the latest changes in the Integration environment in preparation for installation on the UAT or Live environment. A new release contains all the Integration environment snapshots installed since the last release was created .  

All releases are stored by Magnolia in the cloud and you can restore a previous version if you need to.


Note

  • Before you can define a release at least one snapshot must be installed in the Integration environment.
  • When an installed snapshot has been defined as a release you cannot define another release until you install another snapshot.
  1. In Installed releases click Install an update.
  2. Click Define a new release.
  3. This action appears in the activity log and a notification banner is displayed.
  4. Defining the release is a three-step process:
    1. Click Next in Select snapshot step. 
    2. Add a name and description in Describe release. These details are then displayed in the Installed releases and Environment sections of the Package overview page. 
       
    3. Click OK in Define release. As all actions in the Magnolia cockpit are asynchronous, you can click on OK before the action is complete: it will run in the background. 

This action appears in the activity log and a notification banner is displayed. The new release details are displayed in Installed releases section.
