Applies to: All
Overview
Sync copies database and/or files between environments. Cache clears refresh Varnish and Drupal caches without a full sync.
Steps — sync environments
- Open source or target Overview at
/dashboard/[orgId]/project/[id]/environment/[envId]. - Click Sync Environment or Sync from Another Environment.
- Select the source environment.
- Choose Database, Files, or Both.
- Confirm. A safety backup may be created first. Credits may apply.
Steps — clear caches
- On environment Overview, open the actions menu.
- Click Clear caches.
- Wait for confirmation toast (Cache cleared successfully).
FlexLab note
Prefer Git deployments for code changes. Use sync for content-only promotion between environments.
Restrictions
- Cannot sync into a provisioning environment.
- FROZEN organizations may block sync until billing is active.
