I thought the strapi content changes also will be done from the code whereas I realise now things will be added to the db not by code but from the admin console and here i was like a dumb person building a ci cd pipeline to automate changes pushed from dev to prod
But now i dont understand how to automate and deploy the changes/differences in the content between dev and prod database, someone who has also maintained two environments of their strapi application please help me with it

hello ! when you mean changes and difference of contents, you mean the data or the settings?
ok ! there’s some plugins to export/import entries, but from what I tested it’s pretty weird, specially with ids
there’s this plugin about syncing the config : Config Sync | Strapi Market
this looks like for configuration right? what about the content
but it’s not automatic with CI/CD
but you can have some problems with ids
otherwise you need to do a db dump manually
would these plugins work for rds database as i am not using the database given by strapi but instead a aws rds cluster
what’s an ids
rds is some king of postgres ?
the plugin works directly in strapi just try it you’ll see
but as I remember it you start putting data on production and use the import/export, some will fail because of ids
