Re: Detailed Meta-Data Export in 2.25

 

Dear all,

that's actually how they do it in other systems in the commercial sector, mainly
used to forward changes from development to productive systems:

1 - you first select the type of object for the export (dashboard, map, chart,
whatever ...)
2 - then you get a list of possible objects to select from
3 - the system collects the dependencies down to the lowest detail
4 - from the resulting object-tree you can de-select single branches on any
detail level (if a de-selected dependency does not exist in the target-system,
import will fail, though - however this is great if you have manually altered
content in the target system)

This would be great for packaging user defined content for sharing best practice
with others (e.g. a template for Maternity monitoring etc.)

Candy would be also to be able to export deleted object-trees for deletion of
complete trees in other systems ...

Regards, Uwe
