Officeless Data Manager

Data Manager table and workflow definitions move from Dev to PRD through the same gateway-aware pipeline as VP — schema drift stays visible before it reaches production data.

Before you start

  • Data Manager Dev and PRD gateway credentials in a secret provider
  • Target table or workflow ids identified in Dev

Step by step

  1. 1

    Point the pipeline at both gateways

    Set Dev as the source and PRD as the destination gateway; Tentacles keeps their credentials separate via secret providers.

  2. 2

    Sync table and workflow definitions

    Pull the current schema and workflow set from Dev so the promotion targets the latest definitions, not a stale export.

  3. 3

    Select which ids to promote

    Pick specific tables or workflows rather than promoting the whole Dev workspace at once — safer for incremental rollouts.

  4. 4

    Deploy with the host rewrite

    Deploy rewrites Dev-only endpoints (the -uat2 host suffix) to their PRD equivalents so promoted workflows call the right services.

    Tip: Combine with a required-labels policy check so promoted Data Manager manifests stay consistent with the rest of the platform.
