Exporting and Downloading Artifacts Using the Library

To export an artifact (report package, folder, or an application) from your current environment and download to your local file system using the Library:

For more information, see these two EPM Automate commands:

Note:

Oracle recommends that you use the EPM Automate Commands for export if the size of your artifacts (including folders) is larger than 256 MB.

To export and download artifacts using the library:

  1. From the Home page, select Library.
  2. Do one of the following, depending on the artifact:
    1. For a root level folder, in the navigation pane, select the folder, then click gear icon, then click Export
    2. For other artifacts (folder, report package, or application), in the right pane, select the artifact to export, then click action menu then select Export.
  3. Choose a folder to put the export file in, then click OK. The export process runs in the background. Check Messages to view the notification once the export is complete.
  4. Validate that the export was successful by checking the folder you exported the artifact to and that the name of the export zip file is prefixed with Export. For example, Export - MyReportPackage.zip.
  5. Download the export file to your local file system by clicking Download next to the export file name and save the export zip file to your local file system.
  6. Optionally: If you want to move data in an application from your current environment, use the Extract Data procedure. See Load, Extract, and Clear Data.
  7. Log out of the current environment.
