    Dataphin:Export deployment package

    Last Updated:Jan 21, 2025

    Cross-tenant deployment users in the source environment can export objects as deployment package files to meet business requirements. These files can then be downloaded or forwarded to the target environment, where cross-tenant deployment users can import and publish the objects.

    Prerequisites

    • Ensure you have completed the cross-tenant deployment settings, which include configuring the storage and download permissions for the deployment package, before proceeding with the export. For detailed instructions, see Cross-tenant deployment settings.

    • Initiate cross-tenant deployment maintenance using a super administrator or system administrator account. For detailed instructions, see Maintain/Upgrade Dataphin.

    Notes

    To maintain data security and production integrity, and to prevent data failures due to object reference relationship confusion, the system enters maintenance status during the export operation. This minimizes issues from concurrent operations. Once the export is complete, a system administrator or super administrator must manually end the maintenance status for normal system use.

    Note

    Dataphin V3.11 enables the export of historical objects created prior to Dataphin V3.9 for publishing to other tenants.

    Permission description

    The export deployment package operation is available exclusively to cross-tenant deployment users.

    Export deployment package entry

    1. Sign in to Dataphin with a cross-tenant deployment user account.

    2. Navigate to the Management Center from the top menu bar on the Dataphin home page.

    3. Use the operation guide in the figure below to access the Export Deployment Package page.

    Description

    ①Search and new deployment package

    • Search: Filter deployment packages by name or description.

    • New deployment package: To create a deployment package file containing objects from the source environment, click New deployment package. You can choose from full export, incremental export, or specified object export methods.

      • Full export: Use this method to export all objects from the source environment into a deployment package. The full export is ideal for quickly replicating the source environment in a target environment. For detailed instructions, see Full export deployment package.

      • Incremental export: Use this method to select specific objects from the source environment and export them as a deployment package. It is ideal for exporting results from a project phase, such as periodic changes, or objects related to a particular business segment or project. For more information, see Incremental export deployment package.

      • Specified Object Export: This feature allows you to select specific objects from the source environment and export them as a deployment package. It is best utilized when you are aware of the exact objects that have been modified or when you need to export an object quickly (however, it is not advisable for exporting many objects). For detailed instructions, see Specified Object Export Deployment Package.

    ②Export deployment package list

    View a list of created deployment packages, including details like name, description, exporter/start time, status/end time, and available management operations.

    • Download Deployment Package: To download the successfully exported deployment package, click on the Actions column's Download deployment package icon. Once downloaded to your local system, the deployment package can be sent to the target environment's authorized user or super administrator for importation. For detailed instructions, see Import Deployment Package.
