Merge Snapshots

Snapshot merge allows users to compare one snapshot with a trace tip snapshot of a process app. There will be a detailed side-by-side report after this merge operation.

This feature is an experimental function and currently has the following limitations:

• Only supports the updated Script section in Service Flow/Human Service/Process
• Only supports overwriting the entire artifact in Service Flow/Human Service/Process
• Only supports deleting the entire artifact.
• Only supports adding the entire artifact.

Enable Merge To

Enable the Snapshot Merge in Administration Settings. Then the Merge To button will show in Comparison.
