Publish multiple changes (in one release)

UpdatedMay 15, 2024

Publishing multiple items at the same time will allow you to have multiple content updates in a single release.

Important

All publications and deletions are final. You will not be able to access older versions or deleted items once you publish the latest content update release.

Step 1

You can manage multiple updates at the same time by accessing the Home tab and clicking Manage Changes.

This will show a list of all updates that are pending approval and publication. You can also use this page to revert content to draft or to revert an impending deletion.

Step 2

Any items marked ‘Awaiting Approval’ need approval before they can be published. You can use the interface in Manage Changes to approve the item. To do so, click on any item marked ‘Awaiting Approval’ and then Approve.

Step 3

A release management workflow appears. Write a summary of what was changed and click Approve. You also have the option to select who approved the item, the date on which it was approved as well as the next review date. The item is now marked ‘Ready to Publish’.

Step 4

To publish your items, click Publish.

Step 5

The release label and notes window appears. Complete all the relevant sections. You can edit the release notes later if required.
