Import a Visual Application Archive into VB Studio

In your new VB Studio instance, you can create a new visual application by importing the archive of the visual application you exported from the Oracle Visual Builder instance.

To import a visual application archive:

1. On the Organization page in VB Studio, select the project where you want to import the visual application.
   Typically the project owner will have created the project for you and added you as a team member. Best practice is for a project to only contain one visual application.
2. Open the Designer page and click + Create Workspace.
3. In the Create Workspace dialog, type a name for your workspace and click Import from File.
4. Drag your visual application archive file from your local system into the upload area. Alternatively, click the upload area in the dialog box and use the file browser to locate the archive on your local system.
5. In the Git Repository field, enter a repository name and working branch name for the Git repository that VB Studio will create when it creates the workspace.
6. In the Development Environment dropdown list, select the environment to use.
7. Click Create Workspace.

VB Studio creates a workspace with the name and the repository option you specified. Once VB Studio completes set up of the workspace, it opens the workspace where you can work with the visual application that you imported. After you import a visual application, you might need to provide additional details such as service credentials for the application you imported.

When you import the archive, VB Studio automatically performs some migration tasks for you, including creating a repository in the project containing the sources and data in the archive, and setting up a build pipeline that is configured to use the new repository and deploy the application to the environment you selected.
