Automatic publish
Read this article in order to learn more details about the Automatic publish method developed for the i4designer projects created on an i4connected platform.
The Automatic publish method is available for i4designer projects, created for the platforms.
It only takes a few mouse clicks to transfer an i4designer project visualisation to the system of the respective plant - without interrupting the running operation.
The Automatic publish action can be accessed from the following panels:
The Automatic publish button from the main Builds panel
The Automatic publish button
The Automatic publish button from the Builds panel, on the Deployments page

Before using the Automatic publish option to deploy i4designer projects, the Build profile should be defined, under the Profiles panel, on Deployments page.
