GIT Instruction How To

In order to migrate Sisense assets between environments, please follow the below steps:

Step to add your assets to the GIT repository: 

1. Create a project by adding a project name along with a default branch name (such as master, POC, or any meaningful name)

2. Add your GIT repository which could be remote or local.  Below screenshot shows remote repository:

5. You can either share your project with others or continue to the next step:

6. At this point, you have two options to add Assets.  You can add one in below screen and add it to your project:

8. After adding your assets, we should choose the project:

9. Then select all uncommitted changes;  add a comment for your added assets and commit the new changes.

10. Now you push the assets so the newly added objects will be sent to the repository.

11. The Sisense application will need your GIT application credentials to proceed:

Steps to add assets from GIT to another instance:


1. You will need to create a project in the second instance:

Click create project and continue

2. At this step, you can share the new project with other team members if needed:

Save and close the project.

 

3. Then choose pull from your GIT repository and make sure you add the correct branch as seen in below screenshot:

4. The system again will ask for credentials:

Where the pull action, will ask for credentials:

5. And it will update the project:

6. You will then need to pull your added Assets and add your note; and commit afterward:

You should then see your assets in the prod instance.  In our example, map elasticube was added.
