New Migration REST APIs

A number of new migration REST APIs are now available to help customers to automate Cloud EPM lifecycle.

  • Get Artifact Categories: This API gets the artifact categories, which group the artifacts based on the modules used by the business process.
  • List Artifacts in a Category: This API lists the details of different artifacts available within a specific category.
  • Export Categories Artifacts: This API creates an incremental backup of specific artifacts in a category in the environment. Generally, you use
    incremental backup of artifacts of a category to update another environment with incremental changes.
  • List Updated Artifacts: This API lists the application artifacts modified in a specific date range. This API retrieves information similar to that present in the Artifact Updates Report. See Artifact Updates Report in Administering Migration.
  • List Snapshot Details: This API gets the list of categories within the snapshots available in the environment and the actions that can be performed with the snapshot.
  • Get Snapshot Modification History: This API lists the application artifacts that were modified after the snapshot was originally created. Identifying changed artifacts helps you create new snapshots to back up the changes. This API retrieves information similar to that contained in the Modification History report. See Viewing Artifact Modification History in Administering Migration.
  • List Artifacts in a Snapshot: This API gets a list of all artifacts of a specified category within a snapshot.
  • List Import Options: This API gets the import options effective in the environment for the groups and group members information available in snapshots. These options specify the conditions for importing group membership data of users and groups into an environment from snapshots.
  • Set Import Options: This API sets the import options that specify how the import of group membership is handled during import of groups from a snapshot or file.
  • Get Migration Status: This API gets information on the artifact migrations that were performed. This API retrieves information similar to that contained in the Migration Status report. See Generating the Migration Status Report in Administering Migration.

Applies to: Account Reconciliation, Enterprise Data Management, Enterprise Profitability and Cost Management, Financial Consolidation and Close, FreeForm, Narrative Reporting, Planning, Profitability and Cost Management, Tax Reporting

Business Benefit: These APIs provide programmatic ways to manage Cloud EPM lifecycle.
