Command Line Workflow Import/Export

You can perform a workflow import on a Process Framework database from the command line using the Command Line Workflow Import/Export tool. This tool is installed in the ArcFM Solution\Bin directory. Using a command prompt, enter the following path to launch the executable: ArcFM Solution\Bin\mmPxCMDImportExport.exe. Follow the path with the appropriate parameters (listed below).

Export is no longer supported for the Workflow Import/Export tool in the command line.

Parameters

<connection string> - the database being imported from

<xml file path> - XML file to import/export

/I - import(default)

/R or /A - replace(default) or append

/L<log file path> - log file

For example, the following command would import a file called "workflow.xml" into a database called "workflowmanager.mdb" and generate a log file called "Logfile.log":

mmPxCMDImportExport.exe "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\workflowmanager.mdb;
Persist Security Info=False" workflow.xml /I /R /L Logfile.log

A successful import produces the following output in the log file (specified on the command line):
