Hi @Dave_p ,

 

You can export data records by right clicking on the column header and choosing 'Export > xml', afterwards on Dev you can import them in a similar way.

 

Alternatively you could use the 'Add to update set utility' for this:

Hi @Joni V B,

The table has got 500000 records. I think i will try Add to UpdateSet Utility and let you know.

There is also the Instance Data Replication tool from ServiceNow, but that is not free of charge:

Hi @Dave_p ,

Simple export of records in excel and then importing them through a transform map , assuming if tables and columns are not in sync.

Please mark correct/helpful if my response helped you.
