Import data from XML

After you have successfully exported data from the source instance to XML, import the XML file directly to the target instance.

Role required: admin

Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

Importing XML doesn't trigger business rules or update the instance cache.

Procédure

1. Log in to the target instance (the instance that should receive the data).
2. Navigate to any list in the system.
   Any list can be used because the XML file contains the destination table name for the records.
3. Select and hold (or right-click) any column title and select Import XML.
4. In the Import XML form, select Choose File and select the previously exported XML file.
5. Select Upload.

Résultats

Data is imported into the target instance.

If the data doesn't import, navigate to System Definition > Tables & Columns and verify that the table from which the data was exported also exists in the target instance. If the table doesn't exist, you can move it using an update set. For details on using update sets, see Get started with update sets.
