Create a Draft Version of an Integration

Creating a draft version of an integration creates a new copy with the same integration information. This action represents an easier way to create an integration. During draft creation, you must update the version of the integration and optionally update the package and description. Unlike a cloned integration, you cannot update the integration name or identifier. You can also create a draft of a locked integration.

Note:

Integration versions follow a formatting convention of xx.yy.zzzz, where xx is the major version and yy.zzzz is the minor version. If you clone an integration (for example, version 1.00.0000) and change the minor version of the cloned integration to 1.10.0000, version 1.00.0000 is deactivated when you activate version 1.10.0000. To keep both integrations active, change the major version of the cloned integration to 2.00.0000. This enables integration versions 1.00.0000 and 2.00.0000 to be active at the same time.

You cannot create a draft of a recipe or accelerator.

Decide where to start:
- Work in a project.
  1. In the navigation pane, click Projects.
  2. Select the project name.
  3. Click Integrations .
  4. In the Integrations section, hover over the integration for which to create a draft version.
- Work outside a project.
  1. In the navigation pane, click Design, then Integrations.
  2. Hover over the integration for which to create a draft version.
Click Actions , then select Create new version.
The Create new version panel opens.
Modify the name, unique identifier, version number, keywords, and optionally the documentation URL, keyword, package, and description. Not modifying the version number results in the following error:
```
The version of Integration "integration_name" you are trying to create already exists in the system.
```
Click Create version.
