Install Envrionment Version
Overview:
This article explains how to install environments from two locations: the Environments screen and the Repository screen.
Installing Environment Versions:
Users can install a specific environment version—including older versions—directly from the Environments screen.
What Are Snapshots?
A snapshot is the full set of repository versions and launch buttons assigned to an environment at a particular moment in time.

Snapshots:
- Reflect the exact versions active in the environment at that point
- Appear in the History tab for each environment
- Serve as the source for installing older or specific versions
Users don’t need to think in terms of “snapshots”—they simply use them to pick the version they want.
How to Install a Snapshot from an Environment
The video and instructions below illustrate installing a selected snapshot from an environment. All Solsta users can view these snapshots on environments they have access to.
Installing a Specific (or Older) Version
Steps
- Select a Product.
- Select an Environment.
- Open the History tab.
- Find the snapshot that contains the version set you want.
- Click the Install icon in the Actions column.
- In the Create New Local Installation window, confirm the destination directory.
- Click Install.
After Installation
Because you installed a snapshot rather than the currently promoted versions, the environment may show “Update Available.”
You can leave it as-is, update manually when you're ready, or opt out of automatic updates.
