Update an Existing Site

Update an Existing Site

These instructions explain how to update an existing Site and configure the settings so it can be published in the latest version. These steps should be followed for each existing Site you want to publish in the new version of Evolve.

These instructions assume you have already upgraded the Evolve application on your server, and used the Server Configuration tool to configure it.

As long as the model containing your Site is in your repository, when you launch Evolve Designer the Model and its Site should be listed so you can open the Site in the designer application.

 

There is a new warning message displayed when publishing a Site if your model has more than one template diagram for a Rule and Category combination.

We strongly recommend that if you see this message you revisit your model to eliminate duplicate diagram templates for the same Rule and Category, otherwise you could have issues displaying diagrams in your Site.

Step 1 - Check existing custom data and files

Custom Site content

Check that any custom Site content you may have is in the correct location in the Evolve/Site directory.

This is in your Site\bin\webDesigner\custom\<customization-name> directory.

See URLs, file paths and directory structures.

Custom logos

If you use custom logos in your Evolve Site or Sites, the configuration required to use them has changed. Please read these instructions on how to use custom logos on your Site to ensure they continue to work after upgrading.

Custom Workflow Emails

If you have customized the default Email templates for Workflow, ensure they are copied to the Site\bin\SMTP\Email Templates directory.

Step 2 - Update the Site's Meta Model

To update the meta model:

1.In Evolve Designer open your Site

2.Click the Update Meta Model button
The Model is updated with the latest required meta data.

Map Imported Associations to Existing Source and Target Objects

Map Imported Associations to Existing Source and Target Objects

When importing data into an existing model using the XML file import format, the user can now [2020.1.1] choose to map associations by the source and target object for an existing user-defined association, as opposed to by the Unique Identifier.

NB: Traditional associations such as Reason for involvement, Data Model Usage, and Entity Synonym are not affected.

This means that when a user imports an association from another model, if an association of the same type exists between the same source and target objects (having the same source and target, Unique Identifiers) in the target model, the importer will consider it to be the same association, even if the Association's Unique Identifier is different. Without this option, duplicates are created if for example, the same association between the same two objects is created separately in two models, and then the data is merged. This is because they were created separately, so will have different Unique Identifiers and when one is imported into the other, they will be treated as separate Associations and thus be duplicated.

This option, when it has identified an Association that matches by Source, Target and Association Type, irrespective of Association Identifier, will then proceed to update the Target Association, rather than duplicate it. 

For the user to be able to do this, there is a new check box in the import options called "Map associations to existing source and target object" (it only applies to the import wizard for XML), as shown on the image below.

Note: Choosing this option does not change the original XML in any way.

For example, a user creates a new model, say "Master." Within that model, the user creates their own Association Type between Application and Process. They create one instance of Process and one instance of the Application and then Associate the two items using the this new Association Type.

The model is exported to another model, say "Working", and some work is done on it. In this "Working" model, they remove the user-defined Association between the original Process and Application. Do some further work, including making changes to the actual Process and Application, and then decide they need the Association between the original Process and Application back, so recreate it. As it has been recreated, it will now have a different unique identifier. This working model now needs importing into the "Master" model. If the "Working" model is imported using any standard options, the user will now have two Associations between the original Process and Application.

Ticking the check box will stop this and map any changes made to the Association in the "Working" model to the Association in the "Master" model.
