Creating a snapshot
When you create a snapshot, IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop creates an .xml file that contains the list of all the objects in the map along with their version numbers.
Requirements
The map must not be locked, but the objects in the maps can be
locked. The map and its objects can have any status.
Attention: The
system uses the latest released version of the objects in
the map when creating the snapshot. If you have objects in your map locked, the
snapshot will not include these locked revisions. It will instead use the latest
released revisions of these objects.
In the default configuration, when you create a snapshot, the snapshot object is in the Authoring:review status (or the equivalent in your deployment).
You can create a snapshot from any view that lists the map (Search Results, DITA Map, Dependencies, etc.).
