Snapshot - uoForms/ebc6230-bpm GitHub Wiki

Snapshot captures the state of elements within business process app at a specific point in time.

Snapshots are read only.

To export a process app, a snapshot of that app needs to be created first.

The followings steps explain how a snapshot of the business process application can be taken from process designer.

Snapshots serve as data back up.

You can always revert to previous snapshots.

Snapshots cannot be changed, as they are read-only.

• One can view all the snapshots of a selected process app/project under 'Revision History'.

In Revision History, one can view the history(what changes are made by whom during the course action) and also previous snapshots.

• To create a new snapshot, click on 'Snapshot' seen on the top right corner of the process app/project (as shown in the screenshot) This will open 'Take Snapshot' popup window asking for new snapshot name and description of the new snapshot.

• Always name snapshot in this format: <v0.1>

• Though Description is not mandatory, it is a good practice to provide description. Please provide what that snapshot signifies as the description of that snapshot

• Once the snapshot is created, you should see the same under 'Revision History'.
