Cloning allows you to keep the original flow or integration unchanged while modifying a duplicate version of it.
Contents
- You can’t clone shared integrations or shared data flows.
- Referencing integration resources with aliases makes cloning more efficient, removing additional steps to configure the new integration.
Clone an integration
Use the following steps to clone an integration:
- Make sure you’re in the environment from which you’d like to clone an integration.
- On the Home page, go to the integration.
- Based on the integration view you use, follow the steps given below.
Tile view- Click the overflow (...) menu in the upper-right corner of the tile, and select Clone integration.
Tile view
- In the Actions column, from the overflow (...) menu, select Clone integration.
Note: You can also clone an integration by clicking Clone integration in the upper-right corner of a specific integration page.
- Click the overflow (...) menu in the upper-right corner of the tile, and select Clone integration.
- In the Clone integration page, enter details.
- Name: Enter a unique name for the clone. Make sure that it is unique enough that you can identify it later. You can always rename your integration tile or flow outside of the cloning process.
- Environment: Select Production or Sandbox for the resulting clone.
- Review the list of all cloned items contained within the new integration.
- At the bottom of the list of cloned integration components, click Clone integration.
Note: If you clone an integration with flow groups, the groups and flow assignments are also cloned.
Configure the cloned integration
Depending on the integration, you must complete one or more steps to configure the cloned instance of the integration. Connections are not copied into the cloned integration, so the first step is to configure the connections to each app.
For each connector, click the Configure link, then provide the requisite information for the connection and test your connection. See Connector solutions for help setting up connections for particular connectors.
Once you’ve successfully configured your connections, the Integration details page will open, showing all of your data flows. Here, you can turn flows off and on, schedule them, run them, and modify their field mapping.
Clone a flow
- Open the integration tile that contains the flow you want to clone.
- On the Flows dashboard, click the flow’s Actions overflow (...) menu and select Clone flow.
The Clone flow page opens.
- In the Clone flow page, enter details.
- Name: Enter a unique name for the clone.
- Environment: Select the Production or Sandbox radio button.
-
Integration: Select the integration tile you want to save the cloned flow into.
You may also see an option for Standalone flows. If you're not ready to put your flow in a particular integration, you can add it here. It will then be accessible from the Standalone flows tile in the Home page. - Flow group: This option appears if the integration you selected currently uses groups to organize flows. Select a group for the cloned flow, or leave it set to Unassigned.
- Review the list of components included in the duplicate flow.
- At the bottom of the list of cloned flow components, click Clone flow.
Configure the cloned flow
Depending on the flow, you must complete one or more steps to configure the cloned instance of the flow. Connections are not copied into the cloned flow, so you'll need to configure the connections for any app connectors.
Once you’ve successfully configured your connections, the cloned data flow is stored the integration tile you selected while cloning.
