How to Copy Structures and Actions from one Module to Another in Integration Studio

Hi everyone,

I would like to copy the structures and actions from one existing Integration Studio Extension to another. Since both extensions already exist, I can't simply duplicate the source extension. Is there a way to copy the structures and actions?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best,  

Marios

Hi Marios,

you can manually recreate the structures and actions in the new extension by exporting them from the source extension and importing them into the target one.

Hi Marios,

You can copy structures and actions between extensions in Integration Studio by exporting and importing them manually. you can do it step-by-step as follows:

- Open the source extension in Integration Studio (the one that already contains the structures and actions you want).
-Export the below elements 
For Structures: In the Data tab, right-click the structure you want → choose Export → XML and    save the file.
For Actions: Go to the Logic tab, right-click the action → choose Export → XML and save it too.

- Open the target extension (the one you want to copy them into).
- Import the elements: Right-click in the Data or Logic tab where you want to add them →    choose Import → From XML, and select the exported file(s).
- Once imported, publish the target extension so the changes are applied.

If you have multiple structures or actions, you’ll need to repeat the process for each — Integration Studio doesn’t support bulk copy/paste directly between extensions.

Hope this helps!


Thanks and Regards,

Hi Akshay,


I don't get this option. I only get the option to delete (see screenshot below). I have downloaded and installed the latest version (11.14.25) 

Please advise

Hey 

It looks like you’re checking in the wrong place — the Export option doesn’t show in the tree view. Try this instead:

  1. Open your source extension in Integration Studio.

  2. Go to the Logic or Data tab (depending on what you want to copy).

  3. Right-click directly on the Structure or Action → you’ll see the option Export to .XIF.

  4. Save that file, then open your target extension and do Import → From .XIF.

If you’re only seeing Delete / Rename, it usually means you’re right-clicking the module name, not the individual item.

That should fix it.
