Will there be an option to skip promotion of individual components? Where the options Use Existing
, Overwrite
, and Save with a new Name
" exist, can Skip
be added so you can skip promotion of individual parameters?
Answer
- “Use existing” is the same as “skipping” or ignoring the deployment, because it maps to the existing object in the target environment, and does not make any changes.
- To skip objects, we recommend removing
any objects that you don’t want to install from the promotion package, or from the source environment directly. After removing the objects, reassemble the package.
