Create Pega Product File - RAP Type - Best Options in terms of performance and security
Hi All,
While extracting data using the product rules, What is the format that need to selected as "Jar" or "Zip" for an optimal or best practices ?
Do we have any specific risk on the terms of data getting exposed during the extract and import while moving the RAPs from different environment?
Any suggestions?

Need to specify as .jar, otherwise it will take it as .zip, these jar or zip files only can be extracted through pega.

I observed that package file for branch (open branch -> from actions-> package) has different extension based on pega version . Below is what i have observed:
Pega 8.2 -> .zip
Pega 7.4 -> .jar
Thanks & regards,
PJ
If you dont specify .zip or .jar, then by default it will be .zip.
Inside, it will have rules.jar and schema.jar.
The schema jar will have xml for different tables which could be easily read and interpreted.
The rules jar will have binaries and could not be opened outside pega.
I dont see any specific risk except, if someone try to import to Pega, he can have access to those rules and can create user which can use the application.
RAP is confidential and should not be made available to unauthorized user.
