After migration in-db connections missing

STison

We did a fresh install of Alteryx version 2019.2

We copy the inbuilt  mongo db from old server to new and restored.

The IN-Db connections are missing.

How do we export import the in-db connections on the server.

Hi @STison 

 

The in-db connections aren't stored in MongoDB.

 

If you have moved machines, you'll need to copy the XML file they are stored. The default location is "C:\ProgramData\Alteryx\Engine\SystemConnections.xml"

 

You may also find "SystemAlias.xml" in the same folder, this is system connections for the usual input tool (that may however be handle by saved connections in Gallery).
