Importing and Exporting Dataflows

You can exchange dataflows with other Enterprise Designer users with the import and export features.

Note: Dataflows can only be exchanged between identical versions of Spectrumâ„¢ Technology Platform.
  • To export a dataflow, select File > Export. If you have used the Versions feature to save versions of the dataflow, the version you have currently selected is the version that is exported.
    Note: Do not use special characters in the name of the services and jobs you define. Doing so may result in an error during export.
  • To import a process flow, select File > Import > Process Flow.
  • To import a dataflow, select File > Import > Dataflow. The stages in the dataflow must be available on your system before you import the dataflow. If the dataflow you import contains unavailable stages, you will see an error.
  • If you use Server Explorer to organize your dataflows you can also export a dataflow by right-clicking it and selecting Export. To import a dataflow using Server Explorer, right-click in the location in Server Explorer where you want to import the dataflow and select Import.
