Import and Export Utility

Use the import and export utility to export objects from the
Data Integration Hub
repository to an XML file and import the objects from the XML file back to the
Data Integration Hub
repository.
For example:
  • Export objects from a test environment and then import them to the production environment.
  • Export object metadata for temporary backup.
To run the import and export utility, you must have the following permissions and privileges:
  • Read and write permissions for all objects.
  • Export privileges to run the export process and import privileges to run the import process.
If you do not have the required permissions and privileges,
Data Integration Hub
aborts the import or the export process.
You can export and import all objects or choose the export/import objects in a specification XML file. The utility exports or imports objects based on the information in the specification file. If you export objects with dependent objects, the export process exports the dependent objects to the export XML file.
If you import objects for which you defined event or reconciliation monitors, the monitors run immediately after you import the objects unless you disabled the monitors before you exported the objects. Scheduled objects are imported in a disabled state and you must enable the objects before they can run. For example, if you import a scheduled profile you need to enable the profile before it can run according to the schedule.
You can find the import and export utility in the following directory:
<
DIH
InstallationDir>\dx-tools\
The directory also contains the export-all and import-all batch scripts. Use the scripts to export or import all objects. If you use the scripts, you do not need to create a specification file.
You can find sample specification files in the following directory:
<
DIH
InstallationDir>\dx-tools\samples
