Export/Import Collection includes generic elements

[cllde8]

We are excited to announce that the Export/Import Collection function now includes support for generic elements.

Previously, the Export/Import Collection function only supported basic elements such as samples and reactions. Due to the complexity of generic elements, their support was not initially included. However, as more users expressed interest in the possibility of Export/Import Collection supporting generic elements, we have expanded its capabilities to meet this demand.

In the upcoming release, users will be able to utilize the Export/Import Collection function to export/import collections that contain generic elements in the following scenarios:

1. Users can now export/import collections containing generic elements, whether within the same instance or across instances, when the templates used are synced from the template hub.
2. Users can export/import collections containing generic elements within the same instance when the templates used are synced from the template hub or created in the same instance.

Our next goal is to further expand these capabilities by supporting the export/import of collections containing generic elements across instances, even when the templates used are not created in the same instance or not sourced from the template hub. This is a challenging task, but we are committed to giving it our best effort!

We invite you to try out these new features on the test instance and we value your feedback.

Dear all

We're pleased to announce a new feature that allows you to export collections containing generic elements from one instance and import them into another!

🥁🥁🥁 !!! IMPORTANT !!!

Don't forget to ensure that the required templates are available on both instances.

As a Designer, you can use the new "Export" and "Import" functions to align your templates:

• Export: use this function to export the element/segment and its templates from the instance
• Import: use this function to import the element/segment and its templates into the instance

Give it a try on the test instance and share your thoughts with us!
