Workflow to Release Certificate Template Files
The general workflow to release a certificate template file can be found below. Any change to a certificate template must be also updated in Core Git repository folder CustomerAssets.
Consider /wiki/spaces/CMD/pages/5432385144 creating/updating any certificate template.
Steps to Update/Add a Certificate Template File
- Make sure the certificate template uses the correct naming for referenced files (Certificate Template Resource Structure using File Collections)
- Get tested and approved certificate template file for release
- Before releasing any certificate template it needs approval from QA
- Upload certificate file to server's folder location for certificate templates
- Always copy&paste any existing certificate template file. Never rename an existing certificate template file which is still in use. By renaming a certificate template file the LMS wouldn't be able to award the certificate (missing file) during the time period of renaming and re-adding the updated version of the certificate template file
- Keep the certificate template folder on the server clean - move any not used certificate template file (incl. backups) into sub folder 'Not in Use'
- Add/update template files in Git Core repository in folder CustomerAssets.
- If a template is being removed from a live server the Git repository must be updated accordingly so we don't accumulate old/not used templates.
Notes:
- Old document used to catalog all released certificate templates: Certificate Template Usage. This is not required anymore because Core Git repository folder CustomerAssets is used to keep track of currently released templates.
- Old Google drive location to keep track of certificate template files: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1om3B6t1CXeSzVfJzRWW-MKRLfo00G0rv
