A passport draft is a staged, editable working copy of a passport’s content and configuration. Drafts let editors compose and review passports without exposing them through the resolver and without committing the immutable snapshot that publication produces.
Editors start a draft from the product detail surface or from a previously published passport that needs an amended successor.
Drafts are not subject to break-glass or controlled-update workflows because nothing public has been issued yet. Once published, the passport becomes immutable and any subsequent change requires re-publication or, for narrowly scoped corrections, a controlled update or break-glass amendment.
