Creating checkpoints

Last Updated: 12/03/2015 Introduced in Verision: 2.0

This example creates a checkpoint for a flow. The concept is the same across all entities. Creating a checkpoint simply creates a backup of the entity in its history folder. This makes it possible to restore from the checkpoint backup file. The difference of a checkpoint vs. a normal or auto-save is that a checkpoint backup file has a specific name. Manual and automatic saves have generated names.

 

 create checkpoint
 
 
To create a checkpoint, with the entity open, select the Create Checkpoint link.
 
Provide the checkpoint name and add any comments as needed, and click OK.
 
View the checkpoint by viewing the History/Documentation for the entity, or in its Revert to Version list of files.
