Using the Stage Environment
All content changes should be made directly in the Production Environment.
The Staging Environment should only be used to test large scale changes and new functionality before moving those changes to the Production Environment. It is possible that the Staging Environment will not always be in sync with the Production Environment and may not provide a secured way to share or review content changes. Creating content changes in the Staging Environment also causes rework, because those changes will need to be re-made in Production.
Reach out to DoIT Staff if you have questions about accessing and using the Stage Environment.
