Hi all!
I would like to know if any of you have experience of automating unfinished development backups before clone?
In my team this is mostly a question for Citizen Developers, but could be extended for the whole Dev team.
So far for Citizen Developers we usually query sys_scope table and compare it to App Repo to check if it has never been published or if the published version is inferior to the one found in Dev. Then we publish those apps to App Repo, and after clone we install them back in Dev and convert to development mode.
We have done this before also via publishing the app to an Update Set. Other Devs usually manually export their work via Update Sets.
Nevertheless this is manual process that includes many apps and apart from taking a lot of time is prone to human error.
This is such a common process for any company so I was wondering if there are no automation solutions available somewhere, or at least an App Repo API or something to work with to make this process faster and less error prone.
Thank you!
