Cloning Packs

The cloning functionality of the Action Builder Plugin allows you to save time when creating Packs which are similar to existing ones.

Cloning an Action Pack results in all Actions and objects that directly belong to it (Includes, Prompsets, Workflows) to be copied.

To Clone Packs

  1. Go to the Process Assembly perspective, click the Action Packs accordion tab on the sidebar and do one of the following:
    • Right-click the corresponding Action Pack to select Clone.
    • Select an Action Pack and click in the toolbar.

    The Clone Pack dialog is displayed.

  2. Optionally, change the title for the cloned Action Pack. The title will help you and others to better identify the purpose of the Action Pack. Therefore, we recommend you to enter a descriptive name.
  3. Enter a Name. A prefix is automatically added by the system to adhere to the Action Packs' naming conventions.

    Prefixes can be configured via the action.builder file.

  4. Click Clone to clone the Action Pack.
  5. Click Close.

    The cloned Action Pack is displayed in the list.

    6.  

Please be aware that Action Packs can only be cloned provided the SEARCH_SCRIPT_FOR_USAGE setting in the UC_CLIENT_SETTINGS Vara is set to Y. For more information see the Prerequisites table in the Installing and Configuring the Plugin section.
