Deployments

The Deployment section is available for each environment. It contains a list of all deployed projects, including default deployments from the IDE for each user working on the project and deployments that were created from the HOME application, along with their respective statuses and labels. Within this section, you can view and manage your deployments, deploy projects to any environment for future use of Swagger or WSDL files, and access keys.

The Deployment section contains deployments from both HOME and IDE, along with their respective settings.

How to work with deployments?

To deploy a project, click on the Add New Deployment button in the Deployments section.

After that, a New Deployment pop-up window will appear in which the name of the new deployment will be automatically assigned. The name is editable. If you have not created any projects or repositories, STEP 1 Commit will be unavailable, and the repository and project fields will remain empty.

If you have already created repositories and projects, STEP 1 Сommit will become immediately available in the opening pop-up. By default, the first repository and the first project from the list of available options will be pre-selected, and the commits for this project will be displayed.

You can select the desired project from the list, and all existing commits of the selected project will be loaded. Choose the commit you want to deploy and click the NEXT button.

Before creating a new deployment, it is possible to view the specific commit in the IDE in viewer mode by clicking the VIEW button.

To see the difference in each commit, you need to select the desired commit and check the values of the old version and the new version in the Changes section.

In STEP 2 Base URL and keys you can manually specify the Base URL and Access key using a specific format. After entering the data, you can check it by clicking on the VALIDATE button:

• if the base URL is not correct or the key is not registered on a system – the NEXT button is unavailable.
• if the base URL is correct and the key is registered on a system – you can use it and the NEXT button becomes available. Also, you can enter the key of another deployment.

If you do not want to use the default environment Access key, you can generate new one by click on the GENERATE button. The system will generate a key and after successful checking by click on the VALIDATE button, you will be able to proceed to the next step.

In STEP 3 Global variables you can reassign existing variables in the selected commit.

You can set a new variable value, but it is necessary to remember that it can affect the functioning of other parts of the system that already use this variable. Click on the NEXT button.

In STEP 4 Logs, you can turn on the Collection of request logs and click the NEXT button. By default, the collection of request logs is disabled.

In STEP 5 Scaling options, you can see a number of available slots that can be used for deployment. The availability of deployment slots depends on the allocated resources in your organization. The organization’s subscription and additional resources determine specific restrictions and the availability of free slots. For version 5.0 of ProcessMIX, only 1 slot is available for any deployment.

Once you are ready, click the DEPLOY button. The deployment process will be initiated with a Starting status.

The status of the deployment can be viewed in its settings. Additionally, a color indication corresponding to the statuses is displayed next to the deployment’s name.

Deployment statuses:

1. Starting (blue circle) project deployment process is in progress.
2. Running (green circle): project successfully deployed.
3. Stopped (grey circle): deployment process is stopped.
4. Failed (red circle): deployment process is failed.

After the deployment process has been completed, the deployment status is Running.

Each deployment has its own Access key. To obtain it, you need to click on the Show link located to the right of the Access key. You also get access to the Swagger and WSDL files. To obtain them, you need to click on the respective Swagger or WSDL link located to the right of the API.

To filter Deployments click on the Filter button and enter the desired deployment name value in a field. After that, the results of the match will be presented in a general list.

You can filter deployments created via the IDE (default) and via HOME by clicking on the corresponding label in the Deployments section.

To update the list of Deployments, click on the Refresh button .

To rename Deployments, select the Rename option in the context menu of the desired deployment. When the pop-up appears, you need to enter a new name in the input field and then click on the Rename button. The deployment’s name will be changed.

To delete a deployment, select the delete option in the context menu. The deployment will be stopped. The data remains in the Deployment section and database.
