Schema backup diagram

Create or edit schema

  • Domino REST API saves the schema in the application database and submits the schema to the schema service for backup when a developer creates or edits a schema.
  • The Schema Service computes the checksum per database or template and then saves the schema to the SchemaStore based on the new checksum.

On schedule

  • Domino REST API reads the schema from the application database on a set schedule and then submits the schema to the Schema Service for a check.
  • The Schema Service computes the checksum and then saves the schema to the SchemaStore based on the new checksum.

Import schema

  • Domino REST API reads the schemas from the SchemaStore based on the received list of schemas, and then presents the list of schemas to the developer.
  • Domino REST API then saves the presented schemas in the application database.
