Import Snapshot Flow

The following steps describe the import snapshot flow:

  1. All data in the target environment is deleted.

  2. When the snapshot export job is set to an "All" or an "Incremental All" snapshot type, the import snapshot process:

    1. Purges the /data/snapshots/setup folder.

    2. Unzips all contents of the the data folder from the ZIP file to the data folder on the local network.

    3. Imports all data artifacts.

    4. Imports Process related tables.

    5. Resets sequences.

  3. If the snapshot data export job is set to an "Incremental" snapshot type, the import snapshot process:

    1. Does not purge the /data/snapshots/data folder.

    2. Unzips all contents of the data folder from the ZIP into a data folder on the local network.

    3. Imports all data artifacts extracted in the current process.

    4. Imports Process related tables.

    5. Resets sequences.
