Does anyone have experience leveraging GitHub or any other code version control tool to manage Business Rules with OneStream?
Assuming we have a remote Git repository on GitHub that keep track of a...

Even if you try to update the xml_data in the database, I don't think that will take effect without a cache reset. What we do here at our firm is we create a tool that will automatically run a pipeline that pushes the rule into the server from DEVOps. I hope OS comes up with a solution for us. I'm creating an XML and pushing that into the server. It works, but it won't work if MFA is enabled and only M2M. There are a lot of limitations, but it works for our development purposes. But we move dashboard objects, rules DM jobs, Metadata, workflow profiles and it works.
Thank you for the reply.
Push xml into what server? How does it work? Are the Business rules actual files in OS? Where are they stored? Very confused but also interested in how you made it work. Would you be able to share a little bit more details?
So here is the idea, when devops pull requests are approved, what we do is generate a OneStream XML file that can be now loaded into OS. You can automatically load any application or system XML files in OS once they are physically on the server. So please read the file from the DevOps server, pass that whole file as a string, and pass it to an extender rule. The rule will then read the contents of the file that is now passed as a string, get the existing business rule, find out what shared assemblies are there, and use that to create the appropriate type of business rule XML file (Dashboard extender rule are different from finance rules, so on and so forth) and store it in the OS server; from there you can use the loadxml method to load it as a business rule.
I get the most of what you said. I just didn't find loadxml method. Could you pls provide the reference of that method: loadxml? Many thanks!
look for XmlLoadWcf.StartLoadXml
