Import links are used per domain. You can move the links you have created to other databases or other domains. This process consists of two stages. First, you transfer the link information to an ASCII file by exporting the links and then you create a group of links from that ASCII file in the target domain by importing the links. You can export and import only a group of links and not an individual link. Hence, if you want to move a single link, you need create a group to which you associate the link.

Make sure that instrument naming convention is the same in the source and target domains. Otherwise, you will not be able to carry out the import process automatically. In this case, you will first need to modify the links of the naming convention of the required part of the name.

The source and the target domain or database for the links must be of the same version of Smart Instrumentation.
