Hi Team,

I wanted to check if we have mechanism to version control job template or job workflow in AWX. Can I migrate my job template/workflow to new AWX setup. I am expecting similar feature of jenkins which help to migrate jobs from one jenkins server to another.

Regards,  
Nilesh

You can store all your playbooks in git, and let git handle the versioning.

Git to the rescue. That’s what most of the version controlled open-source projects are using.

I would like this feature as well, in current state you’d have to script the creation of the templates through tower-cli and then just version manage the scripts.

See this related enhancement request:

I, too, would like to see this feature as well.
