Sealing and unsealing applications in Jitterbit App Builder

Introduction

To prevent further changes to an app and the structure of its data sources, you can seal it.

You can't change the app without unsealing it. Sealing doesn't stop you from deploying the app or changing the data in its data sources.

Sealing an app ensures it is in a known fixed state when you deploy it to different environments.

Warning

You should never need to unseal an app or its data sources in QA or production environments. Doing so destroys the guarantee of equivalence across environments. Changes made to unsealed objects cannot be reproduced in other environments without significant effort.

Seal or unseal an application

To seal or unseal an application, follow these steps:

  1. Select IDE > Applications.

  2. Select the application to be sealed or unsealed.

  3. In the Application panel, select one of the following:

    • More > Seal Application
    • More > Unseal Application (since version 4.47)
