Artifacts
This operation produces an archive file of the object specified in the OBIEE WebCatalog Object Path if the project is configured for full deployments. If the project is configured for partial deployments, then the artifact will be a zipped directory containing the archive files for each built object. The zip/archive files are suitable for the deploy operation.
Endpoint Selection
This operation delegates endpoint selection to the workflow developer. The workflow editor will default the selection to "All", which selects all available endpoints associated to the environment instance. Selecting a specific resource will result in selection of endpoints associated to the environment instance which have that resource defined.
Endpoint Execution
This operation delegates endpoint execution to the workflow developer. The workflow editor will default to "Any", which will execute on any one of the selected endpoints, which will be randomly picked from selected endpoints or a specific endpoint where previous step may have executed. Changing this value to "All" to will result in execution on all selected endpoints.
