Exporting a Project

Export a project from a Data Integration workspace to an Object Storage bucket.

By default, Data Integration includes referenced objects such as data assets in an export request.

Before exporting a project, see Considerations When Using Export and Import for information about objects that have references across folders in a project.

To export a project, specify the details for the export project zip file such as the file name and the location of the bucket. Ensure that you have an Object Storage bucket and the relevant permissions and IAM policies as described in Required Setup and Policies.

    1. On the Projects list page, find the project that you want to export. If you need help finding the list page or the project, see Listing Projects.
    2. From the Actions menu (Actions menu) for the project, select Export.
    3. In the Export project panel, enter the following details:
      • Tenancy OCID: Enter the Oracle Cloud ID of the tenancy in which you want to save the exported zip file.

      • Namespace: The tenancy name that's based on the tenancy OCID. If applicable, you can enter the tenancy name if the system doesn't populate the field with a value.

      • OCI region: Select the region in the tenancy.
      • Compartment: Select the compartment that contains the Object Storage bucket that you want to use.
      • Bucket: Select the bucket.
      • File name: Enter the file name for the export project zip file.

        .project.zip is appended to the file name when the zip file is created.

      • Overwrite the existing exported zip file: Select the checkbox if you want to overwrite the zip file when the file name that you provide already exists.
    4. Select Export.

      A notification message appears with a View export requests link. Select the link to monitor the request status on the Export/Import requests page. See Monitoring Export and Import Requests.

  • Use the oci data-integration export-request create command and required parameters to export a project:

    oci data-integration export-request create [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

  • Run the CreateExportRequest operation with the appropriate request details to export the project.
