Trouble importing jobs

[ebillin]

Hi team,

I am trying to import jobs from another project into my own. I am getting an error that states the job I am trying to import must first be copied into my import folder for the workspace. After doing so, I am getting another error stating “unable to find files designed by cs data”. The job imports into the workspace, but I get errors when I try to run a job using the imported data. I am using version 2.15.0. I am missing something or doing something wrong?

thanks!

HI @ebillin,

When you copied over the job folder, did you ensure to copy over symbolically linked files as well?
See the copy command in this post:

Exporting a Workspace instead of the full project?

I am curious if it is possible to just export a specific Workspace instead of the full Project that contains it? Would it be enough to copy all of the associated Job folders, the S folder, and associated project and workspace.json files to a separate directory to allow for import on another installation? Any tips are much appreciated!

Please also ensure you’re following all the steps from the data management guide (just substitute the tar command with the cp command):
