1. Serialization in Sitecore

Serialize items using event handlers

Version:

You can use Sitecore event handlers to automatically save database changes to the file system. By default, serialization event handlers are disabled. To enable event handlers, enable the App_Config\Include\Examples\serializationevents.config.example file.

Note

Sitecore event handlers automatically save any changes in Sitecore items to the file system so we recommend that you use event handlers with a revision control system.
