Asset Promotion in API Gateway
Promotion refers to moving API Gateway assets from one stage to another.
API Gateway staging and promotion allows you to:
*promote all the run time assets such as API Gateway APIs, aliases, applications, policies, or admin configurations across different stages.
*select and promote a subset of assets from one stage to another stage. For example, you can promote a single API and its policy dependencies from one stage to another.
*select dependencies involved while promoting an asset. For example, while selecting a service for promotion, you must also select the dependent policies, applications, and so on.
*modify values of attributes of selected aliases during promotion.
*roll back assets in case of failures.
Note:
During the promotion process ensure that both the source and the target system have the same master password. For more information on promoting assets using the webMethods API Gateway, see Promoting Assets.
