Save and release processes

Once you complete the design of your process map, you can save or release it. You can only start a job based on a saved process map, if you have a development license.

  • Saving the map saves map changes and creates a minor version of the map, such as Get Customer Details v0.01.

  • Releasing the map saves and releases the map, and creates a major version of the map, such as Get Customer Details v1.0. You can only use a released map in production.

    You can control the release of a process using the OnRelease event. To handle the release, you can:

    • Create a new process, such as Approve Loan Application Release process.

    • Add activities to the event handling map to take whatever steps are required before the map can be released, such as notifying someone or getting approval.

    • The event handling map must release the map after the release business logic is completed.

      Note Use an API call to the ReleaseProcess method available in ProcessService SDK.
