Committing to Team Server with local Snapshot of Data

0
Hello,  I am wondering if there is a way to commit to team server with a snapshot of local data, while working with and testing excel exporter, I am trying to share the work with a colleague, but we are consistently having to recreate the same data between us, such as templates. Is there a more efficient solution, such as maybe exporting the module and passing it to one another? This would also be to avoid an issue whereby we get conflicts when updating our locals.

Hi Alex, 

you could try to setup a remote database server and connect both local environments to the same database.

If you can export your template configuration you can place it in the project\resources folder. With a java action from the community commons (FileDocumentFromFile) you could import the template on start up. That way every new environment you spin up has a working template config and you don't need to configure it manually everytime for every developer or environment.

Another solution would be a microflow in which you recreate the template and call this microflow in a after startup microflow.

Hi,

If you are using Default database, then following documentation will help you to create Snapshot
