Create an environment

  1. In the ESA console, select Websites, and then click the target site in the Website column.

  2. In the navigation pane, select Version Management > Environments > Create Environment.

  3. Configure the Environment Name, Traffic Filter for This Environment, and Initial Position, and then click OK.

    Note
    • Deployed versions can only be edited in the first environment of the promotion sequence.

    • Traffic filters can be modified for any environment except production.

Create a version

Activating Version Management automatically creates Version 0.

Clone an existing version to create a new, independent one. Changes in the new version do not affect live traffic.

Versions must be cloned from an existing version. The version number auto-increments.

  1. In the ESA console, select Websites, and then click the target site in the Website column.

  2. In the navigation pane, select Version Management > Versions > Clone, and then click OK.

Promote an environment version

After validating configurations in the development and staging environments, promote the version to production.

  1. In the ESA console, select Websites, and then click the target site in the Website column.

  2. In the navigation pane, select Version Management > Environments.

  3. Click Promote, starting from the lowest-priority (development) environment through to the highest (production).
