Creating a package
Introduction
To create a new package, you start by adding the name and (optionally) a description, then select your required process flow versions.
Need to know
A package can contain one version of any given process flow. If you need to deploy different versions of the same process flow, you must create one package for each version.
Process flows are associated with a package for deployment purposes only. After a flow version is deployed, it won't be affected by any subsequent actions taken with the package - for example, if a package is removed, any associated flow deployments won't change.
The steps
Access virtual environment packages
Log in to the dashboard and select virtual environments ➤ packages from the left-hand navigation menu.
Create a new package
Click the create button in the top-right corner:
Provide basic details for the package
Enter a name and (optionally) notes for this environment, then click the create button:
...package details are displayed:
Here, the page is split into upper and lower panels with flows at the top and deployments (of this package) below. As this is a new package, both panels will be empty.
Add flows
To add your first process flow to the package, click the add flow button:
Select a process flow
Select a process flow that you want to add to this package (all defined process flows are listed):
Select a process flow version
Choose which version of the selected process flow to add:
All existing versions of the selected flow are available for selection, together with a latest version option. Selecting latest version results in the latest version of the process flow being deployed whenever you choose to deploy this package. In the example below, version #3 is the latest, and it's currently set to a draft status:
Confirm your selections
Having chosen the required process flow and version, click the add flow button to confirm your selections:
Add more flows as needed
Repeat steps 4-7 for any other process flows that you want to add. When you're finished, use the breadcrumb trail at the top of the page to exit back to the packages list (where you can select options to manage this package):
