  • 1.  Backup Multiple Flows

    Posted 11 days ago

    Hi Support

    I was hoping someone can suggest, how can I backup multiple D360 flows apart from the manual process of selecting each flow and then the 'Export' option.

    Looking forward to your reply

    Hi Andrew,

    You can use AnalyzCLI to export a folder with all dataflows in it.

    In addition to using the AnalyzeCli tool to backup multiple data flows you can also use the following manual approach to backup multiple data flows in a particular Analyze folder:

    • In the Analyze UI, navigate to the folder containing the data flows to backup.
    • Click the Display filter button and change the filter from 'Display all' to 'Display data flows'.The list of assets will change to only include data flows.
    • Click on the first data flow in the list to select it.
    • Select all the data flows (either by using Shift+Left mouse click on the last data flow or using Ctrl+A). All of the data flows will be highlighted.
      If required, you can deselect specific data flows using Ctrl+Left mouse click.
    • Click the 'Export' button in the properties panel. Follow the dialogue to export the data flows.
    • A single .lna file will be created that contains all the selected data flows.
    • Click the Display filter button and change the filter back to 'Display all'.

    Note: When using this approach the data flow selection is not recursive, so only the data flows displayed in the current folder will be included in the exported .lna file.

    When importing the .lna file into a system you may want to import the data flows into a 'staging' folder. You can then select multiple data flows in the staging folder (e.g. using Shift+Left mouse click, Ctrl+Left mouse click, etc) and then click the 'Move' button in the properties panel to move the selected data flows to the required folder.

    Hi Adrian

    Thank You for your suggestion, however the way I have my flows (47 of them) is separated by folders.

    So when I tried your suggestion, I only ended up with 2 flows to be able to exported.

    That would mean, I would have to open 47 folders and select all of flows and then export.

    I've asked our admin person about auto jobs, but apparently the backup is only run on public folders.

    I just thought there would be an easier way..
