At the top of the Integration Builder configuration screen, you’ll see various tools that enable the rapid re-use of configurations within the Integration Builder. These tools help to radically speed up the process of configuring integration components that have similarities but that are not necessarily identical.

Copy – Paste

At a more ‘granular’ level you are able to Copy any level of a configuration within the hierarchical tree. You can then Paste that copied section into your flow at the desired location. You can also exit the Application you copied from and paste it into a different Application.

Note: Handler Configurations must be checked as the Flowcodes will change when pasted so the routing to the required Flowcodes needs to be set, to do so re-select the required destination Flowcode for each routing handler.

If you’re pasting within a new transaction, Handlers using or updating parameters also need to be double-checked as the parameter to update might not exist in the new transaction.

Export-Import

At the ‘top level’, you are able to ‘Export’ an entire Configuration as a ‘flows.json’ file and then ‘Import’ that file into a new GLU.Engine Application to ‘seed’ the new configuration. Once imported, you will need to add the Connector mappings for your new configuration (Connector IDs that match may automatically map but these need to be checked). Beyond that, the full original configuration will be available to be used in the new Application.

Note: You will also need to ‘Repair’ your integrations to re-index the configuration – do this using the ‘spanner’ icon at the top right of the Integration Builder panel.
