Schemas overview
The Configuration section lets you manage following kinds of schemas:
- configuration schemas
- environment schemas
Learn more about available operations with schemas: Operations with schemas in Creatio IDE, Operations with packages in Creatio IDE.
Configuration schemas
Configuration schemas can be added in the following ways:
- Manually while implementing or customizing the functionality using Configuration section or Package settings tab in the No-Code Designer. Learn more: Schemas, Manage app elements in the No-Code Designer (user documentation).
- Automatically while creating the app using the Application Hub section or customizing the functionality using the Pages tab in the No-Code Designer. Learn more: Create an app manually, Manage app elements in the No-Code Designer (user documentation).
Creatio displays the configuration schemas in the Packages directory of the Configuration section.
Configuration schemas include the following types:
- Object
- Client module
- Source code
- Business-process
- Web service
- Case
- User task
- Marketing campaign
- SQL script
- Data
- Addon
- Reference assembly
- Creatio.ai skill
Environment schemas
Unlike the configuration schemas, environment schemas are added only automatically when end users add or customize functionality at runtime using UI. Since environment schemas are implemented without package binding, Creatio stores environment schemas in the database independently of packages, reducing confusion for system administrators expecting package-level edits.
Since version 8.3.1, Creatio displays the environment schemas in the Environment schemas group of the Configuration section.
Environment schemas include the "Client module" type only and are used to store the dashboard customization implemented by end users in the dashboards section view. Learn more: Dashboard types (user documentation).
Environment schemas are available in the current environment only. Since version 8.3.1, if you need to transfer environment schemas between environments, convert the environment schema to the configuration schema that can be transferred between environments. To do this, move the environment schema to the package. Instructions: Move a schema to another package.
