This page discusses the feeds used by the Foundation microservice.
foundationpublish Feed
This feed is used to clone the existing foundation data from the stage environment (authoring DB) to the production environment (live DB). There are three different types of publishing:
- FULL: Publishes the complete data from the authoring DB to the live DB.
Note: You need to run this type of feed when you have a complete change in the data. - INCREMENTAL: Publishes the incremental data from authoring DB to the live DB
Note: You need to run this type of feed when you have minimal updates in data. - ROLLBACK: Restore the data from the previous full version.
This feed is triggered by the publishmaster feed. After the feed is completed, an email is notified to the configured email address(es) with the feed details.
To view the feed summary and history details, refer to the feed job history page of the Feed Admin console.
