Manage Script Development Lifecycle

This page is for Studio script writers. If you're a Studio administrator, see the Development Lifecycle Management help page.
Studio supports a development lifecycle for scripts. It allows your organization more control over scripts, such as limiting who can put a script into production. The lifecycle allows you to promote scripts from one stage to another. You can also copy a script from a higher stage down to a lower stage, such as when a change must be made.
Development workflows, script promotion, and using a version control system with Studio must be enabled and configured by a Studio administrator.
Promote a Script to the Next Development Stage
Required permissions: ACD > Studio > Testing Stage
Studio supports a development lifecycle for scripts. If you have the appropriate permissions, you can promote a script from one stage to the next or copy a script down from one stage to a lower stage. You must have a different permission for each stage your organization uses.
When a script is promoted, it's copied into the next stage's folder. If your organization uses a third-party version control system with Studio, script promotion is committed to that system. You can promote a single script or multiple scripts at the same time.
Before promoting a script, ensure that you have completed any tasks required by your company, such as testing.
