After you have a codebase provisioned by Acquia, you can create your sites by using the codebase and view the existing sites. The number of sites visible to you is based on your individual permission within the Multi-Experience Operations entitlement.
To access the sites associated with a codebase:
Go to Codebases.
The system displays all available codebases along with the number of sites and environments associated with the codebases.
Click Sites.
The system displays all the sites created through the codebase.
You can view the following information about your sites:
Deployed on 3 environments.To create a site:
Go to Codebases.
The system displays all available codebases along with the number of sites and environments associated with the codebases.
Click Create Site.
The system displays the Create Site page.
Click Create Site.
The system creates the site.
After you create a site, you must associate it with one or more environments to create site instances. Site instances are essential for you to use the site. The system creates databases and associates domains with the site after you create site instances. You can associate sites with environments that use the same codebase. In addition, you can associate environments with sites. For more information, visit Managing Environments.
To associate your site with environments:
Go to Codebases.
The system displays all available codebases along with the number of sites and environments associated with the codebases.
Select the site that you want to associate with environments.
The system displays the Site Overview page.
Click Associate environment.
The system displays the Associate Site with Environments page and lists all the environments associated with the codebase.
Click Associate Environments.
The system associates the site with the selected environments and creates site instances. Cloud Platform might take some time to associate the site with environments. Until the association is complete, the status is displayed as Pending.
The Site Overview page has the following fields and action items:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Description | Displays the description for the site. The system displays this field only if you have added a description for the site through Actions > Add description. |
| Codebase | Displays the codebase that is used to create the site. |
| Actions > Add description or Edit description | Enables you to add a new description or update an existing description for the site. |
| Actions > Rename site | Enables you to rename the site. |
To copy database and files from one environment to another:
Go to Codebases.
The system displays all available codebases along with the number of sites and environments associated with the codebases.
In the Associated Environments section, locate the environment with the data.
In Copy Data, select Target environments, to which you want to copy the data.
To dissociate an environment from a site:
Go to Codebases.
The system displays all available codebases along with the number of sites and environments associated with the codebases.
In the Associated Environments section, locate the specific environment.
Go to Actions > Dissociate.
Enter CONFIRM and click Dissociate.
This removes the association of the environment from the site.
