Hi team, For migrating applications from development to production i use export/import. That works fine, however, there is one big problem: renamed objects are not being removed during import. For example: i renamed 10 panels in development and after export/import, the 10 old panels are still present in production. How can i import an application in such a way that all previous objects are being removed first? Kind regards, Jan Willem Vermeer |
Hi Jan Willem, You can delete the old application and import the new one. Please see the accepted answer at this thread: http://osqa.theformspider.com/questions/4691/export-import-application-with-script Kind Regards, Yalim |
Thanks Yalim. When i follow that procedure, the application will get a new ID. My applications are started up with a single-sign-on procedure that needs that ID, so i have to figure out that new ID and also "install" it in my SSO-startup-procedure. It would be more efficient to have a "replace full" import option, that first removes all packages and secondly created new ones based on the import-file. Kind regards, Jan Willem |
Its easily possibly to call a FS application by name rather than ID, simply change the URL to something like
That way you don't have to remember to change ID's when you import a new version of the application |
YES ! It works perfectly with the name instead of the id. Thanks. |
