Importing versions manually

If the component does not import new versions automatically, you can import versions manually.

About this task

To set up a component to import versions manually, see Creating components.
Note: Do not give component versions the name latest, latestVersion, or newest. These names are reserved to represent the most recently created version for certain CLI commands, including requestApplicationProcess and createSnapshot. You cannot use these keywords to represent component versions in the web interface.

Procedure

  1. Display the Version pane for the component you want to use (Components > selected component > Versions).
    Figure 1. Component Version pane

    The component version pane, showing the list of versions for a component and the Import New Versions button
  2. Click Import New Versions.
    Depending on the source configuration type, you might see a window that prompts you for more information, such as the name of the version to import.

Results

The new version or versions appear in the table of versions.
Note: If the version import fails, check the logs in version import history.

What to do next

The imported component version can now be compared with an existing version (if any), copied, or deleted. Starting with V7.1.1.2, you can edit the component versions.
