Can you Preserve Plugins after a Clone?

[Jordan G]

Is it possible to preserve plugins after a clone to easily reapply the plugins to non-prods? 

Thank you!

No, you can't preserve plugins after clone. 

But, the way service now do clones we do a restore of the source instance over a new database, after the clone you will need to activate the plugins again or request them via HI if required.

Hi there,

You could write a Post cleanup script, to automatically install the plugin again. Could you describe your need a bit more? With some scripting, you could preserve plugins and data on a non-production environment.

If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Kind regards,
