Veles

Export and import ​

For moving Veles data between orgs that are not connected, or keeping a backup. Everything travels as one encrypted .veles file.

Export ​

Export Config in the Command Center header.

  1. Select Items to Export. Filter by type (environment groups, environments, configurations, workflows, custom actions), search, tick what you want, or Select All.
  2. Set Export Password. Type it twice. Exclude secret values from export is ticked by default; untick it only when the file must carry Masked, Protected and Credential values too.
  3. Export. The file is veles_export_<date>_<time>.veles, encrypted with AES-256 from your password. Keep the password; there is no recovery.

User Setup rows created on this org are included, up to 5,000.

Import ​

Import Config, pick the .veles file, type its password, click Validate Import.

The review screen lists New Records and Updated Records. Environments in the file are matched to existing ones by Salesforce org id; a same-name environment that is a different org is skipped unless you tick Import into "<x>" anyway. An import replaces each environment's full list of groups with the file's.

Click Confirm Import. If any part fails, the whole import rolls back and the error says why. Files from versions older than the current export format are refused.
