Deploy Metadata
After making any of the following types of changes to a Member Function, you must deploy metadata for the changes to take effect. This process pushes the changes to the Loyalty server, in order to make them available for use within the platform.
-
Publishing a new Member Function.
-
Editing any aspect of a Published Member Function.
-
Deleting a Published Member Function.
-
Archiving a Published Member Function.
Note: The steps below describe how to deploy metadata directly from the Member Functions screen; you can also deploy metadata from the Deployments screen
To deploy metadata:
-
Select Program from the top navigation bar, then select Member Functions from the side navigation menu. The Member Functions screen is displayed.
-
From the Actions drop-down menu in the top-right corner of the screen, select Deploy New Version. The New Program Version pop-up window is displayed.
-
In the Version field, enter a deployment version. The best practice is to increment the previous version number. The previous version number can be found on the Deployments screen within the Program Versions log.
-
The platform displays a log of all the changes included in this version. Review these changes to confirm that the desired changes are getting deployed.
-
Click Create & Deploy Metadata. A confirmation dialog box is displayed; click Confirm. If the deployment was successful, a success message is displayed.
-
Click Close.
