Increasing Project version number

Project version

When you export a Project, the Project is assigned a version number. Unless you update the number manually, this is always version number 1.

Service version equals Project version

If a Project includes Service Request input connectors or service-enabled Messages and you deploy the Project to a StreamServer application, the StreamServer application automatically exposes services. The services are used for creating, previewing, and releasing documents and are assigned the same version number as the deployed Project.

Several service versions in parallel

Several services of different versions can run in parallel in the same application domain.

By increasing the Project version number and deploying the new version to a separate StreamServer application, you can run an updated Project version in parallel with a previous Project version. For example, in a Correspondence Reviewer scenario, already paused documents in the Message storage are previewed and released using the previous Project version, while new documents are created using the updated Project version.

Limitation – Running several services of different versions in parallel in the same application domain is not supported for StreamStudio Composer.

To increase the version number

When you export the Project (see Exporting a Project to disk), increase the Version number.

Note:

When increasing the Project version number, the version numbers of all StoryTeller templates included in the Project are also increased.
