What Is Full Sync

Full Sync means staging is the authority for approved site presentation, content, and configuration changes. Protected live operational data is not blindly overwritten.

Short Explanation

Full Sync is the default publish mode for suitable non-live-data sites.

  • It is the normal fit for brochure, lead-generation, and other non-live-data sites.
  • It keeps approved presentation, content, and configuration work on staging before live release.
  • Live publish still stays governed and protected-data aware.
