Data360 Analyze

Unfortunately, there is no 'one size fits all' approach to version control as the details of the SDLC process will vary between different organisations. You may want to investigate this article that provides a mechanism to automatically export all data flows/ data flows that have been modified. When a data flow is exported the .lna filename includes the datetime stamp of the export.

Unfortunately, there is no 'one size fits all' approach to version control as the details of the SDLC process will vary between different organisations. You may want to investigate this article that provides a mechanism to automatically export all data flows/ data flows that have been modified. When a data flow is exported the .lna filename includes the datetime stamp of the export.

The AnalyzeCli tool can be used to export multiple data flows. Information on the AnalyzeCli tool is here:

https://help.precisely.com/r/Data360-Analyze-CLI/main/en-US/Data360-Analyze-CLI-Help/Latest-release-Build-639

After logging into the Analyze server, the 'export' command enables you to export all data flows recursively from a specified point in the directory structure or perform a full dump:

analyzeCli --host <hostname> --port <Port> export -R -f "<Destination_File.zip>" <Analyze_Directory_Path>

For example:

## Export data flows from a specified point in the directory structure

analyzeCli --host https://analyze.example.com/ --port 443 export -R -f "C:/temp/export_Adrian_2023-08-09.zip" /Users/Adrian

## Export all data flows in the system

analyzeCli --host https://analyze.example.com/ --port 443 export -R -f "C:/temp/export_All_2023-08-09.zip" /

Thanks for the information. I was able to install and login into Analyze CLI.

But when trying to execute your last command to export all data flows, I'm getting this error: 

Any advice?

Instead of exporting everything using "/", try exporting "/Users" or "/Public Documents".  I've run into trouble exporting every single object by specifying the root folder.  Maybe the new version will fix it.

So for the moment there is now way to export all dataflows at once? Still a manual export then?

When a data flow is exported the .lna filename includes the datetime stamp of the export.

All of the data flow assets that are created by users of a Data360 Analyze system will be created under either the "/Users" or "/Public Documents" directories of the Analyze directory structure.

Using a script with two AnalyzeCli export commands which specify the two path names will have the effect of exporting all of the users' data flows.

In addition if you have modified the default  'Data360 Failed Schedule Email Notification V2.0' data flow in the "/Data360 Services" directory then you should export the contents of that directory too.

I've found the command to export the dataflows; but when running I always get this error:

ERROR: export: Export to 'Action_LeadingDataSubdomain (UAT)' failed, status code: 400

And only part of the flows is exported. Please note that the file is related to a schedule added to the Data Flow
