We have been promoting Catalog Items with Workflows for years by creating them all in the Global scope and using Update Sets to promote. We are just beginning to start using App Engine Studio to build Scoped Applications, which, if I understand it correctly, typically does not involve you having to use Update Sets, as you just publish them.
It sounds great to me, but I admit I do not have a full understanding of App Engine Studio and Scoped Applications yet, as it pertains to this. My question really revolves around, does EVERYTHING get picked up when you try to promote the published application?
For example, let's say that we start a new project using App Engine Studio, and do most of the development there, but let's say that there are some more "advanced" features that we want to do that we cannot seem to do using App Engine Studio, so we do it outside of it (i.e. it doesn't look like you can do Catalog UI Policies from App Engine Studio). Will those things I do outside of App Engine Studio get picked up when I try to promote the published application, or will I need to promote an update set too (that contains things like the Catalog UI Policies)?
Or perhaps, maybe a better way of asking it is like this: is there ANYTHING that wouldn't get picked up when I try to publish/promote the application, that I would need to manually promote using an update set? Does EVERYTHING created in that scope get promoted, regardless of how it is created?
I imagine that there may be some things that might require manual update promotion, if they are created in the Global scope. For example, let's say that I create a Client Script that I want to share across multiple applications, so I create it in the Global scope, but elect to make it accessible from ALL applications. I imagine that would not get picked up in the promotion since it lives outside of the Scoped Application (and is in the Global Application). Is that right?
Thanks
