Issue Importing Playbook via Update Set – Activities Missing

[rubenlopez-]

Hi everyone,

I'm facing an issue when importing a Playbook from an XML file. I exported it from an update set in my dev instance and imported it into my test instance. However, after the import, only the Stages of the Playbook were present — all the Activities were missing. 😞

Here are the steps I followed:

In the dev instance:

Created a new Update Set named PlayBook_updateset.
Switched the current Update Set from Default [Global] to PlayBook_updateset.
Opened Workflow Studio and created a copy of the Playbook to include it in the Update Set.
Marked the Update Set as complete.
Exported the Update Set to an XML file.
In the test instance:

Opened Local Update Sets.
Imported the XML file.
Previewed and committed the Update Set.
There were no errors during the process, but when I open the Playbook in Workflow Studio, I only see the Stages — the Actions/Activities are missing.

Has anyone experienced this before or knows what might be causing it?

Thanks in advance!

1. Create the Playbook.
2. Create and make current the new Update Set to be used for moving it.
3. In sys_pd_process_definition.list, select the created Playbook you want to move.
4. From the same list, select "Add to Update Set" from the top-right dropdown menu.
5. Close the Update Set, export it as XML, and it can now be imported (including its activities) into other instances.
