Baseline the Release Version of the Objects

A content designer baselines an object to create a snapshot version of it in the design environment. Users cannot change the baseline version of an object but can use it as the basis for a new version. A content designer can baseline objects at any time, but typically baseline the version of the object that is targeted for export. To prepare for export, content designers can both baseline and set the release version on the export version in the same session.

Note: The version of an object that you baseline for exporting in a folder as a content package can be the current version or another version. Typically, it is the current version that is checked it.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click the Library tab.
  2. Click Orchestrator and select the appropriate Orchestrator:environment.
  3. Navigate to the folder with a target object and verify that the State field for the object indicates Checked In. (If it does not, check in the object before continuing.)
  4. Select the target object and click Properties.
  5. Click the Versions tab.
  6. If the Baseline button is enabled on the version to release, click Baseline.

    In the following example, the Baseline button for Rv2.0 is enabled.

    Click Baseline if this button is enabled.

  7. Close the Properties pane.

Set the Release Version of Content Package as Current

The Versions tab displays information about the release versions that are available for a content package. The release version typically identifies a specific package version to deploy in a production environment.

After you import the content package to the new environment, you can use the Versions tab to set the content package release version attribute.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click the Library tab.
  2. Right-click a content package, and then select Properties.
  3. On the Properties pane, click the Versions tab.
  4. To set the content package as the current release version, select it and click Current.
  5. Click Yes on the warning message.

    The Library browser shows the current version of the content package.
