Versions must be created in AEM upon using Manage Publication.
Use-case:
Manage Publication is commonly used feature within AEM and versions not being created with Manage Publication can cause issues while restoring content.
Current/Experienced Behavior:
Versions are not created in AEM upon Manage Publication and versioning works only if Quick Publish option is used.
Improved/Expected Behavior:
Versions must be created in AEM upon using Manage Publication.
Environment Details (AEM version/service pack, any other specifics if applicable):
This has been reported to the engineering under the internal reference SITES-27074. The product team will triage this request to verify feasibility based on the prioritization model. This post will be updated according to Jira's status.
Would it be possible to hear about the current status of this Investigation?
A customer that is considering migration from OnPrem AEM (6.5) to AEMaaCS finds this feature a large blocker for considering their move. This would be great if extra consideration can be made.
The issue still seems to be unresolved. I am experiencing it today as well. Versions are created when using "Quick Publish," but not when using "Manage Publication." In my opinion, this may be very confusing for content authors and needs higher prioritization for fixing.
