Copy Application

Administrators can create or replace applications across environments using the Copy Application tab in the Application Management solution.

Source

  1. Select a Source Environment, which is the environment of the application being copied or replaced. The Source Environment will display active OneStream environments.

  2. Select a Source Application, which is the data that will be copied to create a new application or replace an existing application. The Source Application will display all active OneStream applications.

Target

  1. Select a Target Environment, which is the environment where the source application data will be copied or replaced. Only the current environment can be selected from the drop-down list.

  2. Select a Target Application to create a new application or replace an existing application. The drop-down list allows for a new application copy or displays all available applications that can be replaced.
