A commonly used approach is the Development, Testing, Acceptance and Production (DTAP) approach and to have a separated environment for each one of these four. The Development environment can be used to develop the workflows in this case.
A Development license is available. It is exactly the same as a production license, except that its output speed is capped at 100 pages per minute. So you can do everything you need using that license, before publishing the resources to the Production server. Obviously, with the speed limit, you can’t test the performance of your changes, for that, you would need a Test license, which is also available.
Contact your reseller or your Upland OL Customer Success Manager for more information on these licenses.
