Pass Portal Content Copying Between Environments

On logging in to the pass portal for a deployment I noticed a new great feature added to the pass portal.

Now under each environment there appears a "Copy content" button that appears.

When you click on this it will allow you to restore the blobs/database between environments. The supported options are

  • Integration -> Pre Production
  • Pre Production -> Integration
  • Production -> Pre Production
  • Production -> Integration

Full documentation can be found at https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/digital-experience-platform/self-service/content-synchronization/ 

This is great for the continued increase in features that come to the pass portal UI and well as the great Deployment API https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/digital-experience-platform/deploying/episerver-digital-experience-cloud-deployment-api/ which has a whole host of extra features in it.
