Advanced backup of HTML/JS views and UX metadata

Back up UX metadata by copying view folders, creating new metadata records with renamed folders and files, reconnecting model and application records, and continuing work with active files for comprehensive version control.

Here are more advanced steps for backing up your UX metadata:
  • Make a backup copy of your HTML/JS view folder and its files.
  • Rename your backup folder with an easy identifier, like today's date.
  • Create and rename a brand new UX view metadata record.
    • Rename your active HTML/JS view folder and its files to match this new metadata record.
    • Add your active HTML/JS view, and any other supporting HTML/JS and CSS files, to this new metadata record.
    • Create, rename, and reconnect any brand new UX model, data source, model-and-view, and application metadata records related to your new UX view metadata record.
  • Continue to work with your active HTML/JS view folder and its files.
