How to Refresh and Force-Create Snapshots in Sparkforge
Sparkforge snapshots let you clone sub-account configurations across accounts. Pick exactly which assets to include, refresh only what changed, and force-create snapshots when a few assets fail to load so you keep moving.
Snapshots let you copy sub-account configurations — workflows, funnels, emails, and more — into other accounts. Selective inclusion, selective refresh, and force creation give you tighter control and fewer failed attempts.
What snapshot management does
It captures and reuses sub-account configurations across other accounts. Choose exactly which assets to include, refresh only the parts that changed, and bypass temporary asset load errors when needed.
- Selective asset inclusion for lean, focused snapshots
- Selective refresh to update only the assets that changed
- Force creation so a failed asset does not block the rest
- Per-asset retries for transient load failures
- Loading progress visible during creation and refresh
Create a snapshot with selected assets
- Open Account Snapshots from the main menu.
- Click Create New Snapshot.
- Enter a descriptive name.
- Select the source sub-account from the dropdown.
- Check the assets you want to include — workflows, funnels, emails, etc. Select all or only what you need.
- Click Create.
Refresh an existing snapshot selectively
- Find the snapshot in Account Snapshots.
- Click the Refresh icon next to it.
- Currently included assets appear pre-selected. Add or remove items to match what changed.
- Click Refresh to apply.
Force-create when assets fail to load
If the system flags a failure during creation, you get a warning with a Force Create Snapshot option. Successfully loaded assets are saved; skipped assets are listed in a summary report so you can revisit them later.
Best practices
- Name snapshots so you can tell them apart later — include the source account and date.
- Use selective refresh after small changes instead of recreating snapshots from scratch.
- Review the skipped-asset report after a force create and retry those assets in a follow-up refresh.
