Creating a migration package from a preselected list in a file

If you are not familiar with the Pulse migration feature, you should read first the article below:

Where to find the upload button

Since v6.0.2, Pulse enables you to create a migration package from a list of objects in a file. The Upload button will be available after choosing the server, then the instance name, tick the Manual option and finally click Next:

Format of the file

The type of the file is JSON. For each object you want to add in the migration package, you will need to specify the name and type (Application, Chore, Process, Cube or Dimension) as below:

[ { “name”: “FinanceP&L.xlsx”, “type”: “Application” }, { “name”: “Cub.GeneralLedger.Demo”, “type”: “Chore” }, { “name”: “General Ledger”, “type”: “Cube” }, { “name”: “Account”, “type”: “Dimension” }, { “name”: “Currency”, “type”: “Dimension” }, { “name”: “Cube.GeneralLedger.ImportFromFile”, “type”: “Process” } ]

As it is a JSON format, you will have to add an extra “” in the Application name:

  • From “FinanceP&L.xlsx” to “FinanceP&L.xlsx”
