Export Flow

As needed, you can export a flow from Designer Cloud. An exported flow is stored in a ZIP file that contains all objects needed to use the flow in any instance of that platform that can access the flow's sources and outputs. Exported flows can be imported into different projects and workspaces.

Flow export is useful for:

  • Backups of work in progress

    Avertissement

    You cannot import flows that were exported from a version before Release 6.8.

  • Archiving of completed development work

  • Migrating flows from one instance to another

An exported flow ZIP also includes:

  • Any .data files, which may be included as artifacts of feature usage.

    • For transformation by example, artifact files include the value transformation information for the TBE step. For more information, see Overview of TBE.

    • For cluster clean, artifact files contain the mappings between source values and clustered values. For more information, see Overview of Cluster Clean.

  • Any configured webhook tasks are part of the flow definition. For more information, see Create Flow Webhook Task.
