Importing Users to Another Instance

In 8.3.1 and Earlier Versions

PhixFlow exports/imports references between user groups and users. When you import to another instance:

  • existing local and mixed users have their user groups, roles and privileges overwritten
  • any new local or mixed uses that are created with the same user groups, and therefore roles and privilages, as the source instance.

In 8.3.2 and Later Versions

PhixFlow treats user roles and privileges as instance-specific. For this reason, exports from a PhixFlow instance do not include the references between user groups and users. When you import to another instance:

  • existing local and mixed users retain their user groups, roles and privileges unchanged
  • any new local or mixed uses that are added do not have user groups, roles or privileges set by the import process. You will need to set appropriate user groups, and therefore roles and privilages.
