Work with Snapshots
A snapshot is a copy of the current application that you're working on at a given point of time.
Create a snapshot of your current application
You can create a snapshot of the application that you're working on currently to save the latest changes.
- At the top of the page, click the saved timestamp or click
and choose View Activity.
- In the Activity pane that appears, click Take
Snapshot.
The snapshot is named with its timestamp and listed topmost in the activity list.
-
To edit the default name of the snapshot, click the snapshot and edit the name in the Name field that appears.
You can also enter a meaningful description in the Description field.
-
Click the three horizontal dots next to the snapshot name field to display a menu with the following options:
- View: Choose View to view the contents of the selected snapshot.
- Activate: Choose Activate to activate the selected snapshot.
- Delete: Choose Delete to delete the selected snapshot.
Create a snapshot during activation
Snapshots also get created when you activate an application.
- In Designer, click Activate.
The Activate pane is displayed. Process Automation assumes you want to create a new snapshot that contains your most current changes.
- In the Select a snapshot field, select another snapshot rather than creating a new one that contains the latest changes.
- In the Snapshot name field, optionally change the default timestamp name that will be assigned to a new snapshot.
- When you select Activate or Override, a message lets you know that the snapshot is being created.
