Hi there, 

 

I currently have a DEV model that is not deployed where i create a revision tag, push it to our UAT deployed model, then push it to our Production Deployed model. I want to refresh our DEV model with the latest data in our Prod model. I was wondering if i can take a copy of our Prod model and then make this the DEV model? Will i need to adjust the source model or anything so that when i create a revision tag in this new DEV model, i can push it to UAT and then to Prod? Also, do i need to connect this to our DEV HUB model as well? If anyone can help out that would be much appreciated!

 

Thank you 🙂

Amanda

    Hi Jason,

    Thank you so much for this detailed description! 🙂 I was able to make a copy of both models and now i have the new DEV HUB (copy of Prod HUB) and the new DEV 2 (copy of Prod). I also created a revision tag in both models and pushed it from DEV HUB -> UAT HUB -> Prod HUB and a revision tag in DEV 2 -> UAT 2 -> Prod 2. When i run an action to import data from DEV HUB to DEV 2, i dont see the new data. How do i fix it so that these import actions will work? Thank you! 🙂

    Best,
    Amanda

    Hello Jason,  Our team is currently using this process to copy data from PROD to DEV.  Our reason for doing so is that to be able to test and validate, we do need the latest information.  We currently only do this once a quarter after our forecast period ends. 

    The issue we are facing now is that we have connected Informatica to both DEV and PROD.  The copying process changes the Model ID for the DEV which would then require us having to reconnect Informatica with the new model ID.  Are there any other options of copying PROD to DEV without changing Model ID? Is the only other option to create actions to import data from PROD to DEV?  


    Thanks

    I just wanted to make sure I understand your comment below. 

    "There is a Variable set up in integrations so that changing the Model or WS ID is quick, and you only have to change it once."

    Does this refer to an Informatica Variable setup or an Anaplan Variable setup?  Could you clarify so I may follow up and ask the appropriate question?


    Thanks
