Downloading UX content

UX content can be downloaded as one or more content files, such as .html and .css files. You can download a content file before you include it in a migration package, or before you import a migration package that contains a content file.

About this task

You might find it useful to download a content file that is contained in a migration package to examine it before you decide to import it. You might want to compare a content file that is contained in a migration package with another version of the same content file by using a comparison tool to identify differences between versions. For more information on comparing UX metadata, see Compare and merge HTML/JS views.

  1. Upload the Object Migration package that contains the UX content into the target platform environment.
  2. Validate the objects that are to be migrated.
  3. Select Web Component or Web View File in the Navigation panel.
  4. Select one or more UX components or content files, respectively, in the Objects panel and click Download Content For Selected.
  5. Save the files to the system.

    The downloaded .zip file includes the OM folder and System folder. The OM folder contains the source content files, while the System folder contains the target content files.

  6. Use an HTML diff (difference) tool to examine the downloaded content and verify that it should be imported as part of the migration package.
  7. Import the migrated objects into the target environment.
