Compare changes in Release Manager

[LuukOlthof]

It would be a great addition if it where possible to see the changes between processes/objects that are part of a release in the Release Manager Windows.

Currently, there is no way of seeing the contents/changes of a release while importing it into the Prod Environment.
When importing a release you go through a number of windows, such the logging information and the overwrite questions. I would like to see an additional step here.

Similar to comparing versions of a process/object in the studio. It would be helpful to have this option when importing a release.
I understand that when importing, the actual process/object is not in the DB yet en and Compare function works by comparing to versions in the DB. However, I am sure it should be possible to works this out, for instance by importing it, then give the release manager the option to view the differences and then actually commit them. If they choose not to go trough with the release the imported version should be deleted.

When Im exporting and Importing a Object i want to have the option to import the new Version ID and the Summary of the Changes as well (Change History)

Hi @LuukOlthof,

Thanks for taking the time to raise an idea.

I've reviewed the details and have no further questions for you, so I'm going to set this idea to a Reviewed status for now. Next steps will be to see how many votes this idea collects from the community to see whether this is an idea that has widespread appeal and should therefore be considered for future roadmap.

Hi @ChristopherJank,

Thanks for taking the time to raise an idea.

Currently, when a release package is created the change history of the processes and objects contained within the package are not included in the release. This means that viewing this information on import to a new environment is not currently possible.

There is this other idea on the community ideas portal that talks about giving users the ability to run the compare tool on an incoming process and/or object as part of a release package to allow the user to more easily see what the differences are between the incoming and existing versions - I'm wondering if this would meet the underlying needs of your idea also? If so, I'm thinking that this idea should be merged into that one.

Let me know your thoughts - I'm going to mark this as Needs More Info awaiting your response.

Regards,

Rob
