Migrate Your Content

Capture the content you want to migrate in a snapshot and restore that snapshot on your target Oracle Analytics Cloud.

1. Sign-in to the source Oracle Analytics Cloud.
2. Save the entire environment you want to migrate to a snapshot.
   1. Navigate to Console, click Snapshots, and then Create Snapshot.
   2. For name, enter Migrate content to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure or something similar.
   3. Select Everything, and the click Create.
   See also Take a Snapshot on the Source.
3. Export the snapshot (BAR file) locally.

   You're asked to create a password for the snapshot. You'll need this password when you import the snapshot on the target system.

   See Export the Snapshot.
4. If required, extract the semantic model .rpd file from the snapshot (BAR), add the new connection string, and then upload the updated semantic model to the target system.

   This step is only required if you currently use Model Administration Tool for Oracle Analytics Cloud to manage semantic models and you migrated your data from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. See Edit Connections and Upload Semantic Model.

5. Sign-in to the target Oracle Analytics Cloud and import the snapshot.
   See Import the Snapshot on the Target.
6. Restore the snapshot.

   Do one of the following:

   • If you didn’t edit your semantic model in Step 4, select Replace Everything.
   • If you edited and uploaded your semantic model in Step 4, select Custom, and deselect Data Model and Subject Areas.

   See Restore the Snapshot on the Target.

7. In Console, verify and configure other settings to complete the migration.
