Importing an App

TIBCO Flogo®, Node.js, TIBCO BusinessWorks, and TIBCO Cloud™ Integration - Connect On schedule and On event apps can be imported using the Create App dialog to create new apps. For additional details on Create App dialog options see Creating an App and Create/Import App Dialog.

Considerations

After apps are imported, you may need to modify names and make changes to some configuration settings, as follows:

• TIBCO Flogo®, TIBCO BusinessWorks, and Node.js apps created by uploading an archive are named based on the name in the manifest.json file. If an app already exists with the same name that is in the manifest.json file, the new app is created with a temporary name based on the app type and the number of existing apps of that type already created, such as New_Flogo_App_0, New_Flogo_App_1.
• Imported TIBCO Flogo®, TIBCO BusinessWorks, and Node.js apps show in a Stopped state and have zero instances. To start and scale your app, see Starting, Stopping, And Scaling Apps.
• TIBCO Cloud™ Integration - Connect On schedule and On eventapps are created with a temporary name based on the app type and the number of existing apps of that app type already created, such as New_Connect_App_0, New_Connect_App_1.
• Imported TIBCO Cloud™ Integration - Connect On schedule and On event apps show an Incomplete state and require further configuration, including selecting an Agent and ensuring that each flow has the correct connections. See the Prerequisites sections of the following help topics: Creating Or Editing An On schedule App and Creating Or Editing An On event App.

To rename an app, see Renaming an App.

Follow these steps to import an app from the Create App dialog.

1. Log in to TIBCO Cloud™ Integration.
2. On the Apps list, select Create/Import. The Create window is displayed.

   

3. Select a category on the left that identifies the type of integration you need. If you are familiar with the app type you want, select All app types.
4. Select the Import action for a specific app type from the list on the right. Note that if the plan you purchased does not entitle you to use an app type, that type is disabled. For other options, such as Create, see Creating an App.
5. In the block that displays below your selection, either drag and drop your import file onto the import box or click the browse link to find and open your import file. File types vary depending on the app type you are importing.
   • For TIBCO Flogo® apps the app archive is a JSON file.
   • For TIBCO Cloud™ Integration - Connect On schedule and On event apps the file is a JSON file containing one or more flows exported from within an existing app. See Exporting and Importing Flows.
   • For TIBCO BusinessWorks Apps, this includes an EAR archive and an optional manifest.json file.
   • For Node.js apps, this includes a ZIP archive file and a manifest.json file.
   Note: App archives cannot exceed 100 MB in total size.

   

6. Click Import. The app is created. After the import is complete, the App Details Page is displayed for the new app.
