Import an Application

Import a previously exported process application or decision application to create a new application.

What's imported?

You can import the following files:

• Previously exported .expx or .dmnx files from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Process Automation.

• Previously exported .exp and .dmn files that are created in Oracle Integration Generation 2.

  Once you import the .exp or .dmn file, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Process Automation displays a migration report that contains the following sections:

  • Migrated

    Review this section to understand what has been migrated.

  • Review and finalize

    Review this section and take the required action. For example, you have to manually reassign the role members.

  • Couldn't migrate

    Review this section to understand functionality that could not be imported. For example, references to Insight activity may not be available in Process Automation.

    Note:

    Once you fix the problems, validate the application. You can always access the original migration report by clicking Main menu at the top of the application's page and choosing View Migration report from the menu.

All metadata (design time settings) from the application is imported, except for:

• Credentials are not imported.
• Users or groups assigned to roles may be unavailable.

You can also import .exp and .dmn files that are created in Oracle Integration Generation 2. Once you have imported the file, Process Automation displays a migration report that contains the following sections:

To import a saved application:

1. On the Designer home page (All Applications), click Create.
2. In the Create application pane, choose Import application.
3. In the Import application pane, drag and drop the .expx file or the .dmnx file into the Drag and Drop area.
   You can also import .exp and .dmn files into the Drag and Drop area.
4. Click Import.
   The newly imported application appears in the list of applications.
   If you have imported a .exp or a .dmn file, Process Automation displays a migration report that you need to read and take the necessary action.
