→Overview
* This feature is only available to clients with dedicated environments.
* Configuration changes are promoted based on individual objects. For example, if two projects modify the same object (such as a report), both sets of changes to the object will be promoted when either project involving that object is promoted.
* Some data will not be promoted when T2P is run. This includes the details about the last and next run for autoloaders and scheduled exports, as well as associated organization IDs in signup pages and autoloader configurations. Other items that will not be promoted include SmartFolder content (except for System Folders) and Question Set Builder fields. Generally, if an item was not copied over, using the legacy desktop tool, it will continue to be excluded.
* This article pertains to the online version of T2P, not the desktop tool. The online version of the T2P tool is not the same as the Desktop version. Each functions a bit differently, and you can choose whichever one best suits your preferences for the time being. For example, the project-based T2P does not connect to both databases simultaneously. Instead, whenever a configuration change is made anywhere in the system, it is logged as a candidate for promotion. You then export these changes to the target instance, where you can review and select which changes to promote. In a future release we plan to introduce the ability to roll back changes in the Testing environment for cases where you choose not to promote a change.
