How to export-import a Model 

You might need to import a Kiuwan Model into you your Kiuwan account. 

Reasons might be because you have two different  Kiuwan accounts and you need to copy a model from one account to another, or because you have a Saas account and you are migrating to Kiuwan On-Premise, etc.

Regardless of the reason, Kiuwan lets you to export a Model and import it into another account


Exporting your model

 

First, select the model you want to export (by going to Model Management and selecting it).

In this example, "My Model" will be a model to be copied (the source model).

 

 

Next, you have to export the model. To do it, go to the Rules tab and select the ZIP submenu option.



A zip file will be downloaded.

Unzip it into some temporal directory.



After unzip unzipping it, you will find two directories (en and es).

Info

Directory en will contain the exproted exported model files you will import later.

 


Importing the model

 

Once you have exported your source model ("My Model" in our example), you need to import it into you your target model.

Previously to import it, you need to create an empty model ("My New Model" in our example).

To create it, login to your other account,  go to Model Management, select New and Create from scratch



Click on Create Model to save it and the new model will appear (with 0 active rules)

 


To import the previous model, got to the Rules tab and select Import rulesets submenu option.



A dialog will appear where you can upload the exported model files.

 

Exported rules files follow this pattern:

           qaking_<technology>.xml

where <technology> is any of the technologies supported by Kiuwan (javaJava, jspJSP, csharpC#, etc)




Info

These steps must be done for every technology file.

Currently, there's not an option to upload more than one file at a time. Therefore, the next steps must be repeated for every technology.

And VERY IMPORTANT, be sure to select the en directory when uploading the files.

 

Once the technology file is uploaded, you need to select the target model (that one that was created previously)



Once you select the target model, click Next and you will be presented with an import preview.



Click on Import and it's done.

The model will now contain the same configuration as the source model that you exported (activated rules, your priorities, rule parameters, etc.)



If you need to import the configuraion configuration of other technology, please repeat the above steps.

 

Info

Once done, do not forget to Publish the model, to make it publicly available.
