Import Models, Controls, or Conditions

You can import models, advanced controls, or global conditions. These items may have been exported to a file. Or, you may import delivered content: models (but not controls or global conditions) developed by Oracle. Delivered content is available by default for the Oracle Cloud data source, and becomes available for each synchronized data source to which you set up a connection.

Some Limitations

A file exported from an Oracle Fusion Cloud Advanced Controls instance can be imported only into an instance at the same version or the next version. For example, if you export from a 24D instance, you can import into another 24D instance or into a 25A instance. In the export file, you can search for a <grcVersion> tag to identify the version from which the file was exported.

Release 25A implements a limit of 25 user-selected result attributes for transaction models and controls. Transaction models and controls inherited from release 24D may exceed that limit. If so, they run in release 25A, each returning results for all its result attributes. But:

  • If a transaction model has more than 25 user-selected result attributes, you can import it into a release-25A instance. You can't deploy it as a control, however, until you edit it so that 25 or fewer of these result attributes remain.

  • If a transaction control has more than 25 user-selected result attributes, you can't import it as a control into a release-25A instance. Instead, you can import it as a model, edit the model to have 25 or fewer user-selected result attributes, then deploy the revised model as a control.

Begin the Import

If an import file contains controls, you can import them either as controls or as models:

  • To import them as controls, select Actions > Import in the Controls page. To import them as models, select Actions > Import in the Models page.

  • If you import controls as models, elements that apply only to controls, such as priority or result type, aren't imported. Neither are perspective values selected for the controls, nor the result investigator.

  • Before you import controls as controls, be sure that perspective values cited in the controls exist in the target instance.

If an import file contains models, you can import them only as models. Or, if you want to import delivered-content models, there's no need to select a file at all. In either case, select Actions > Import in the Models page.

If an import file contains global conditions, you can import them only as global conditions. Select Actions > Import in the Access Global Conditions page.

Having selected an Import action, enter values in a series of import pages, selecting Next or Back to navigate among them.
