Workspace change during upgrade

[vamshi krishna4]

Hi,

In one of the OOB workspace we have hidden a component directly in the config section of that component, during the upgrade if there any updates to that page will it effect the current configuration or will there be a skipped record for this so we can validate and commit the updates from the upgrade.

I need some help understanding the effects of upgrade for customizing the workspaces.

Thanks,

Vamshi

The best thing to do is to create a variant of the workspace and apply your changes there. It will be a skipped change during an upgrade, but it could be a big one that you need to go through. These have a lot more fields to check than a simple business rule in your skipped changes.

Most pages we ship OOTB are read only so you'd have to duplicate the page into a new variant and make your changes there. Also in this scenario the original page would get updates and you'd be able to compare that to your customized page and make a decision on how to proceed. There are a few pages we ship editable and in those cases if you update the page the updates would be skipped. On the back end each page is its own record.
