Migrate Your Visual Application
You can migrate a visual application from an Oracle Visual BuilderTraditional Cloud Account instance by importing the application as an archive or by importing it from a Git repository.
The credentials for services used by the application are not imported. You need to supply the credentials after creating the new application from the imported sources. Similarly, the entries for mobile build configurations, such as iOS provisioning profiles, keystores, and passwords are not imported. You need to re-enter these details in the new instance.
Export a Visual Application Archive from the Oracle Visual Builder Traditional Cloud Account Instance
In your Oracle Visual Builder Traditional Cloud Account instance, use the Export action to create a ZIP archive of the visual application you want to migrate to the new instance on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
When you export the application you can choose if you want the archive to include the development data contained in the application’s custom business objects. Some information, such as credentials for external REST end points, is removed when you export an application. This information needs to be provided after the archive is imported.
To export a visual application and its custom business objects:

For example, if the application you are importing contains Process definitions, you will be prompted to specify an existing Process application that contains all the process definitions required by the application you are importing.
Import a Visual Application from a Git Repository
If your visual application's sources are stored in a Git repository hosted on Oracle Developer Cloud Service, you can import the application by configuring the connection to the Git repository and creating the application from the imported sources.
