All streams are flow targets of workspaces or other streams. Many
streams have their own flow targets, which are typically established when
the stream is created. You can use the Stream Editor to
add or remove flow targets for a stream that you own.
Flow targets of streams are used in two ways: they document the
standard flows for the change sets in the stream, and they are used as templates
for initializing the flow targets for all repository workspaces created from
the stream. Team members who create repository workspaces from a stream will
have their flow targets automatically configured to match those defined in
the stream.
To add or remove stream flow targets:
- In the Team Artifacts view,
right-click the stream and click Open.
- Navigate to the Flow Targets area of the Stream editor. Any existing flow targets are listed. The default flow target is distinguished
by the string (default). The current flow target (which
is typically the default flow target) is distinguished by the string (current).
- Click Add in the Flow Targets area. (To remove a flow target, select it and click Remove.)
- In the Select a Stream or Workspace window,
choose the kind of flow target to search for. If the flow target
you want to add is not displayed, you can enter a text string that will be
used to search for a stream or workspace whose name matches all or part of
the text string. If you are not sure of the name of the stream or workspace
but know the name of its owner, you can enter the owner's name to see a list
of streams or workspaces associated with that owner.
- Select one or more entries from the Matching items list
and click OK to add the selected flow targets.
- Click Save to save your changes.
By default, all components in the stream flow to and from all
of the stream's flow targets. You can edit any of the flow targets to specify
that only a subset of components should be included in flows to and from that
target. To edit a flow target, select it and click Edit.
Flow targets that have been edited to specify a non-default flow scope are
distinguished by the string (scope) in the Flow
targets list.
