Release Candidate Testing - Yellowstone - 7.2

Hi all and thank you for participating in our Yellowstone release candidate (RC) testing cycle! You can find the release notes here:

https://gtpservices.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SK/pages/2329411585

This testing environment will be accessible from Wednesday, May 1st to Wednesday, May 8th. It's important to note that the actions performed in this RC environment are based on a copied database of your production sites, minimizing the risk of any unintended impact beyond publishing. If you wish to conduct publishing tests, please refer to the Critical Setup Instructions: Publish Testing section below.

To access the RC website, please visit https://rc.gtpstratus.com/

Additionally, any issues that you find that are not congruent with what you are seeing on the STRATUS production website can be sent to the service desk with a summary that starts with “RC - “. This will help us keep up to speed on any issues if you find them and will get the message to the right people in a timely fashion.

 Critical Setup Instructions

1. SSO - (Remember that this is only required for customers that are already using SSO with STRATUS) Organizations that have implemented Single Sign-On (SSO) will need to be sure that they have configured their systems to work with our RC environment. Those companies using SSO will require additional setup on their side to support RC.

   1. https://gtpservices.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SK/pages/1853980688

2. Non-SSO - Once you land on the RC website you will need to perform a password reset for that STRATUS environment.

3. BIM 360 - If you have not already done so, it will be critical for you to set up a project in BIM 360 specifically for testing. It is not that you cannot use your live projects when AB testing between production and RC, but publishing is limited to your testing project and those instructions can be found in section 3 below. Again, the configuration for this testing project is as follows:

   1. Add The STRATUS Release Candidate integration to your Autodesk Docs account:

      1. In Autodesk Docs Administration Settings Tab click the Add Custom Integration button

      2. Make sure BIM 360 Account Administration and Document Management are selected

      3. Select Invite a developer

      4. In the email textbox enter terry.humphries@gogtp.com

      5. Click the Send button

      6. Once GTP has responded to create the new RC custom integration, you must click “Approve” button for it in BIM 360 admin settings.

      7. Create a project specifically for use with the Release Candidate for publishing purposes

      8. We suggest naming it something like “STRATUS Release Candidate Testing”

4. Publish Testing is NOT available on this release

   1. Configuration for publish testing (if you are doing that) specifically once you have set up a new project for this which can only be done after the RC environment goes live (you will be notified):

   2. Ensure that your new project is added in the Admin > Company > Projects page

   3. For your testing project, check the checkbox for the testing project in the Publish in RC Column

   4. Install GTP STRATUS AddIn

   5. Replace the following files in the following locations

      1. Go to %appdata% in your File Explorer

      2. In the GTP STRATUS folder

         1. Rename the Settings.json file by adding an x to the end of the name

         2. Drop the Settings - Import - RC.json file into that folder and rename it to Settings.json

      3. In the GTP Software Inc\STRATUS folder

         1. Rename the Settings.json file by adding an x to the end of the name

         2. Drop the Settings – Publish - RC.json file into that folder and rename it to Settings.json

   6. ONCE YOU ARE DONE TESTING PUBLISHING, DELETE THE JSON FILES THAT YOU ADDED AND RENAME THE OLD ONES BACK TO THEIR ORIGINAL FILENAMES!!!
