Edit a SharePoint deployment configuration

  • Article

You can create a deployment configuration or modify an existing deployment configuration. For example, you could run a single step or change the order of the steps in the deployment process. You may want to create or modify deployment configurations because the built-in and programmatically added configurations cannot be changed.

Create a SharePoint deployment configuration

To create a SharePoint deployment configuration

  1. In Solution Explorer, choose a SharePoint project, and then, on the menu bar, choose Project, ProjectNameProperties.

  4. In the Available Deployment Steps pane, choose the steps that you want to add to the deployment configuration, choose the (>) button, and then choose the OK button.

    Note

    If you have configured a pre-deployment command or a post-deployment command, these steps run only if you add them to a customized deployment configuration.
