 Hi @TheoB ,

 

To perform import and export configurations we need to add configurations to a “Application configuration package”.  

Adding configurations to Application Configuration Packages can be done from the Configured Pages page in Aurena. Below follows an example of how to add a configuration to a package.

  • Add to Package button on the Configured Pages page is used to add Page Layouts and Custom Pages to Application Configuration Packages. There is a column in the Configured Pages list  which show the Package that the configuration is added to.

     

  • Clicking the Add to Package button will open a dialog where the user can define a New Application Configuration Package or Add items to an Existing Package. In below example a new Package is created.

     

  • When a Custom Page is added to an Application Configuration Package, it will be displayed as below. 

     

  • When adding the Custom Page to the Application Configuration Package, all the underlying objects needed for the Custom Page will also be added to the Package.
  • Now this configuration can be exported and imported to another environment.

Hope this will be helpful you to add configurations to Application Configuration Package and perform export and import actions to another environment.

 

Thanks & Best Regards,

Sanuri

Hi @Sanuri Karunarathana ,

Thank you for this information.
Only, I am in IFS Cloud and this is for a standard screen.
And I don't have a "Standards pages" tab like you in the captures :

Hi @TheoB ,

In the IFS Cloud version, we have the “Page Configurations” page and on that page, it shows all configured standard and custom pages. We can identify them from the page type,

From this page, we can add configurations to an existing or new “Application configuration package”.

After adding the required configurations to the package we can view package details from the “Application configuration package” page as below,

 

We can use import and export options in this page to export and import configurations to another environment. 

 

Thanks & Best Regards,

Sanuri
