PhixFlow provides for copying models and model elementsmodelling objects, both internally, in the current PhixFlow instance, and externally (via export), to another PhixFlow Instance.
Copy
There are a number of ways of copying models and elements within a single instance of PhixFlow.
...
- A copy of each element, with the same name as the original.
- Input pipes into the copied elements from elements that the originals were connected to. Output pipes from copied elements are not copied unless the pipe is an input for another copied element.
Export
There are a two options for exporting elements for import into another instance of PhixFlow.

| If an application is imported which already exists in the target system, anything which does not exist in the imported version of the application will be permanently deleted. |
Password
If a password is entered during the export process then passwords and security questions will be exported encrypted. If no password is entered then this information is not exported. On import the password must be correctly entered to import the encrypted data. If the password is incorrect or not provided then the rest of the configuration will be imported without the encrypted information.
Copy On Import
If Copy On Import is ticked during the export process, a copy of the exported elements will be created when the configuration is imported rather than making changes to elements which already exist in the target system. The copied version will have the same name as the original.
Protect During Import
Protect during import is a field available on filters, datasources and HTTP datasources. If this is ticked then the element will not be updated or deleted when configuration is imported.
