  • 1.  "Renaming" a project in webMethods Integration (SaaS) using the API

    Posted 22 hours ago

    Hello all

    I have been trying to rename a project in wM Integration (v11.2.1). I know there is no rename option in the UI, but I was hoping I could export project "A" and import the zip file with a new project name (e.g. "B") using the API. I looked at the API for project-import and saw the field new_project_name. API doc is here
    So, for the project, I attached the zip file I exported, and using new_project_name I specified the new name I would like.
    When I run the request, I get an IMPORT_SUCCESS response but when I login to my wM Integration tenant, I do not see the project wMMFT_to_Syncrofy_FTV. It appears that the WayneDemoProject was updated.
    I see a note in the documentation saying "Importing a project to the source tenant or environment where the original version of the project exists is not supported."
    In my opinion, the API needs a variable to indicate a new UID should be created for the new project name. If someone specifies a new_project_name variable, then it is obvious they want a new name (even if it's on the same tenant) πŸ™‚
    Has anyone come up with a workaround ? All I want to do is rename my Project.
    Please let me know.

    Thanks @John Carter
     Do you know any way to make this work? I've been digging into the export zip file to see if I can tweak the config files so the import will work. I know this is not supported but I don't see another way. If you know how this can be done please let me know.

    I just figured if someone was specifying a new project name, then a new UID would be created and the existing project could remain. I haven't checked the API for the new release yet but my immediate need is on 11.2.1

    I look forward to an enhancement.

    I'm afraid no, not officially. 

    fyi, we have now also recently added a new import feature, so that you can import a project based on a git repo. Caveat being that it does not yet include workflow or legacy flow services but we are working on getting them into the git repo for early next year.
