Sharing changes

You share your changes so that your collaborators can retrieve them.

Before you begin

  • If there are incoming changes, you must retrieve them first. Resolve conflicts if there is any.
  • If you retrieved changes from a collaborator, check the behavior of your updated decision model. For more information about running your decision models, predictive models, and task models, see Running models.

    Changes that do not conflict from a file perspective might conflict from a semantic one. For example, if you retrieved changes on a data model that your decision model is using and you didn't change this data model, there is no conflict between the files. But the results of your decision model might change. You must run test data to validate this behavior before sharing.

Procedure

  1. Open the Share changes tab from your decision automation page to check the changes that have not been shared yet.

    You can share all or some of your changes. For example, share only some of your changes when the rest is not ready to be shared yet, or to associate different messages with different changes.

    Expand the list and click View details to see the details of the changes that you made.

  2. Select the decision service and artifacts that you want to share, and click Share.

    Enter a message that describes the changes that you made so that others understand what you intended to do when they see your changes.

  3. Click Share.

Results

The changes can be now shared with your collaborators.
Note: To the IT users:

When you make a change in the decision artifact, the corresponding pom.xml file for the artifact is automatically updated after you share it.
