Exporting Legacy Files

Starting with Panopticon 2020.0, the new server installation will no longer include Workbooks and Datafolders in the AppData folder. To recreate these folders and export workbooks and their associated data files, GroupAccessRestrictions, and parameters that are
stored inside the repository, you can either:

• do a POST call to http://[host]:[port]/[serverappname]/server/rest/server/export/legacy/files?replaceExistingDataFiles=true&replaceExistingWorkbooks=true

  Example:

  http://localhost:8080/panopticon/server/rest/server/export/legacy/files?replaceExistingDataFiles=true&replaceExistingWorkbooks=true

• or perform the following steps

1. Set the documentation.enabled property in Panopticon.properties to true.
2. Restart the server.
3. Access the REST API to call the /rest/server/export/legacy/files service using this URL:

   http://[host]:[port]/[serverappname]/swagger-ui.html

   Example: http://localhost:8080/panopticon/swagger-ui.html

   The Panopticon REST API page displays.

4. Select legacy in the Select a Definition drop-down list. 
5. Expand the Server section and find the Export Legacy Files service then run it. 

   If successful, the Data and Workbooks folders are recreated in the AppData folder with the exported workbooks, data files, parameters, and GroupAccessRestrictions.
