Hi Clone Preserver glide.security.url.whitelist

[Gemma4]

Hi everyone,

We are about to do a clone from our prod instance (source) to our lower environments (target). One of the security changes we made was adding sys_properties >> glide.security.url.whitelist -Added instance url in each instance

As a result, I want to  make sure when we clone, we don't loose each unique url in our instances. Is it correct, that I just need to add a preserver in prod to exclude this? Below and attached are the details. Just wanted to confirm I'm on the right track to keep this property in each instance. 

Thanks so much in advance for any guidance you can provide

Preserver

table sys_properties

condition name is glide.security.url.whitelist

Hi @Gemma4,

By adding a preserve for glide.security.url.whitelist in the sys_properties table during cloning, you’re telling the system not to copy this specific property. This ensures that the distinct URLs in each instance remain unchanged during the cloning process.

Preserve means: keep what data is already there on the target instance, but add to it. Exclude means: If no preserve, don't even bring data to the target instance, but instead make it empty.

Thanks,

Anand
