Moving, Importing, Exporting Objects

Automic Automation provides various ways of moving objects. You can move objects within the same Client. You can export objects from a Client and import them in a different Client within the same Automation Engine system. You can also import objects into a different Automation Engine. This topic outlines all these possibilities and provides links to the topics that describe them in detail.

Moving Objects Within a Client

You use the Move function or the drag and drop feature to move objects or folders from one location in a Client to another one. For more information, see Moving Objects or Folders within a Client.

Moving Objects from One Client to Another Within the Same Automation Engine System

You have two possibilities to move objects within the same Automation Engine system:

  • Using the Export / Import functions

    Use this option if you are not moving large amounts of objects and if you want to be flexible as to where you want to import the objects in the target Client/system

  • Using the Transport Case feature

    Use this option if you want to move large amounts of objects or if you want to make mass changes in the objects that you move

Moving Objects from One Automation Engine System to Another

You have the same possibilities as with moving Clients within the same system, that is, Import / Export or Transport Case. The same recommendations apply.
