3.13.14.1 About Exporting and Importing a Workspace
To move a workspace and all associated users to a new Oracle Application Express instance, you export the workspace.
When you export a workspace, Oracle Application Express generates a text file. This file contains information about your workspace, all the users in your workspace, and any groups in your workspace (if applicable). You can import this file into another Oracle Application Express instance.
Exporting a workspace and importing it into a new database instance enables developers to import application components. When building new environments (for example, moving from development to testing or testing to production), Oracle recommends creating workspaces by importing them.
Keep in mind, this method only imports the workspace, users, and groups. This file does not contain:
-
The schemas associated with this workspace or the objects in those schemas.
-
Any applications, images, cascading style sheets, and static text files.
These items must be exported separately.
