Scoped Application Movement from one instance to another

[pankajsharma]

I am trying to move a scope application from one instance to another . So I had published my Application in my dev instance and tried to install the same from different instance but there are few tables which didnt get migrated. Also our Dev was cloned at the same time . So I installed the application in my Dev instance using Application studio and everything was fine. 

But now the application doesnt show in my "Develop " tab and I am not able to change any configuration on my application. Can anyone suggest what should be the right approach to move application from one instance to another?

Hi Pankaj,

If you need to publish an app from development instance to another instance, you should do it via "Publish an application to the application repository". In this case, the app will be in Download mode and not Develop. However, in another case where you want an app to be in "Develop" mode (**assuming you want to continue development on other instance for some reason), you need to take an export of your app as update set and import it in the target instance.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello. I'm a new to app developing. Jus a question. I've created my own traning app and then published it to my application repository.

Further, i can see my new app but only in "development" state, not ready to be installed.

How can i make installable, i.e how can i tell the system that it's no more in development state?

Hello Pradeep,

Thanks for your previous answer. I have one follow up question regarding the "move in dev mode" option.

If I simply export the whole app into an update set and try to import it, the preview will give a bunch of errors related to "because: Scope 'xxx' is not 'Global'".  Are these OK, since the scope naturally does not exist yet. Or is there something special to consider? Especially if I want to keep the same scope and everything. 

Kind regards, Mikko

Hi Mikko,

I'm not able to reproduce this on my end. Could you please help me with the STR?
