  • Deb, perhaps I am misreading your question, but it appears you want to get item information into a CD environment? That is typically done via publishing, as your items are only really deployed to a master database and then publishing transfers them to the Web database referenced by a content delivery server.

    If you are not running a Test content management system and only a test CD instance, then you can achieve the item transfer by having a publication target within Sitecore which targets your Test CD web database. You would need to add this to your connection strings and also in the database as a publishing instance, and then your CM can pubish to Test CD
