  • 1.  Are there any easy/free version control options for Data Modules

    Posted 01/13/22 10:09 AM
    Hi

    We have several environments and need to put in some sort of version control capability in the Development environment. This needs to include Dashboards and Data Modules, so some of the lesser (or older) products will not be suitable for this.

    Is there anyone utilising a tool or have any knowledge of how this might be accomplished easily.

    I know there is an IBM subscription service that writes to GitHub, and I'm waiting for some indication of pricing on that, but suspect will not be cheap.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi, We're using Motio CI for that. It's not  free but it's good :-)

    We use Motio CI as well.  The version control experience for Data Modules and Dashboard is lacking though.  Would love to see better support for this in the future.  or if any other solutions do a better job with Data Modules and Dashboards.

    There's also ICS from BSP Software. I didn't test it yet but it supports dashboards and reports. Don't know if it also supports data modules or if it's on their roadmap.
