Overview

SnapLogic Manager supports Project Import and Export operations. This enables you to copy SnapLogic Assets across Orgs. You can export a Project in the form of a Zip file containing all of the Pipelines, files, Flows, Accounts, and Tasks associated with the Project. Pipeline dependencies, such as child Pipelines and related accounts, are maintained during export. Accounts . If you use different Orgs for development, testing, and production, you can then import the Project into the target Org. An accounts_template.json file is included in the exported JSON file. The Project Import wizard supports uploading the accounts template and a global expression file that defines variables for Account access. This enables you, as an Org admin, to maintain a master file for your account information and then change the variables across Orgs without changing the master file, supporting Continuous Integration and Continuous Development (CI/CD).

Info

SnapLogic Accounts

Accounts are exported only when the Org supports encryption. SnapLogic, by default, has Standard Account Encryption (SAE) across all Orgs, unless an Org has opted for Enhanced Account Encryption. In SAE, accounts are encrypted with keys managed in the cloud.
