[06-August-2025] We have released a new enhancement to the data structure creation workflow in the Snowplow Console: the ability to save drafts. This feature allows you to save your progress on a new data structure before it is ready to be published to your development environment, making it easier to design and collaborate on your tracking.
Key Changes & Benefits
- Iterate on Your Designs: Now, you can save a draft, allowing you to iterate on complex structures over multiple sessions without cluttering your version history.
- Safe Editing Environment: Drafts are contained entirely within the Console's user interface and are not accessible by your validation pipelines (e.g., Snowplow Mini). This provides a safe sandbox for designing and refining your data structures without any risk of affecting event validation in your development environment.
- For New Structures Only: Please note that the drafting functionality is only available for new data structures. It is not possible to create a draft for a data structure that has already been published and versioned (e.g., a structure at version
1.0.0).
This enhancement is now live and available to all users. When creating a new data structure, you will now see the option to 'Save' which will create a draft, alongside the 'Publish' button to push it to your development environment.
