Deploy a Robot to a Higher Environment
After you finish local testing, create a deployment package that contains a robot and its integration. Import the deployment package into a higher environment, such as test or production.
Use Cases
You have several opportunities to deploy to a test or production environment:
-
Many organizations deploy to a testing environment to simulate real-world usage.
-
Additionally, everyone should deploy to a production environment when you're ready to go live.
Prerequisites
Before deploying to a higher environment, ensure that the robot is error free and runs successfully. See Workflow for Building a Robot and Workflow for Testing a Robot.
Workflow for Deploying to a Higher Environment
-
Create a deployment package that contains the robot and its integration.
See Create and Manage a Project Deployment in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.
-
Export the project deployment.
See Export a Project in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.
-
Import the project deployment into the higher environment.
See Create or Import a Project in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3.
How Import Changes Your Components
The import process makes the following changes:
-
The robot's status changes to Draft.
-
The connection details in all robot connections are removed.
-
All environments are removed from the environment pools.
