Was there an easy way to fix this?

i am in a similar situation:

1. Created App in DEV.
2. Published to Repo.
3. Installed in QA
4. DEV cloned from PROD
5. App installed from My Company Applications

Now the app is not there in sys_app table and i cannot edit it in Studio too. What is to be done to fix this issue?

Hi Sankalp,

Restore the DEV to its previous state before Clone. Then in the PROD, exclude tables add the table 'sys_app'. Also, add this table in the Preserve Data.

Thanks for that answer. Any other creative ideas as I see some challenges internally to do it.

If the App was deployed in QA/TEST instance via Update Set then, uninstall the app from DEV and deploy the Update Set from QA.
