Working with Installed Bundles
You can access options for working with installed bundles from the Add-On Bundles page or the View Installed Bundle page.
When you work with bundles, you can perform the following actions:
Copying a Bundle to the Organization
A bundle designer can enable an option to allow consumers to copy the bundle objects. If that option is enabled in a bundle, you can copy the individual objects.
1. Install the bundle in the organization where you want to use the objects.
2. Click the bundle name you want to copy.
3. From the View Installed Bundle, click Copy to My Organization.
4. Click OK to close the confirmation dialog box.
If the object name already exists in the organization, Informatica Cloud appends a numeric value (for example, "_2") to the object name. The individual bundle objects are now available to configure or edit in the design tools.
Creating a Mapping Configuration Task from a Bundle
You can create a Mapping Configuration task directly from the bundle details page to use the bundle’s parameterized mappings or integration templates.
The task options for the bundle object appear when you create a task for the object in the task wizard.
1. Click Configure > Add-On Bundles.
2. On the Add-On Bundles page, click the icon in the Actions column next to the Object Name to create a task.
3. Configure and run the task in the Mapping Configuration task wizard.
Uninstalling a Bundle
Note that uninstalling a bundle removes all the objects from the organization. If you want to keep tasks that use objects in the bundle, remove the objects from the task before you uninstall the bundle.
1. Click Configure > Add-On Bundles.
2. Click the Uninstall icon for the bundle that you want to uninstall, and click OK.
- - To delete the tasks and uninstall the bundle, select Yes, delete these objects and click OK.
- - To keep the bundle and the tasks, click Cancel.
Upgrading a Bundle
You can upgrade an add-on bundle when an updated version becomes available.
When you upgrade a bundle that includes objects used in tasks, Informatica Cloud checks the compatibility of the objects with the tasks. During the upgrade process, Informatica Cloud treats objects as follows:
- •If an updated object is compatible with tasks, updates the object.
- •If an updated object is not compatible with tasks, displays a list of incompatible objects. An object might be incompatible if it includes a parameter change in a mapping that would invalidate the task when you deploy it. To continue with the upgrade, choose to keep or delete the affected tasks.
- •If the updated bundle no longer includes an object used by tasks, Informatica Cloud asks if you want to delete the tasks. To upgrade the bundle, allow task deletion.
- •Displays a list of any objects that were removed from the bundle in the new version.
The bundle status changes to Upgrade Available after the bundle designer publishes a new version.
1. From the Add-On Bundles page click the bundle name you want to upgrade.
2. From the View Installed Bundle page, click Upgrade.
3. If prompted, choose to keep or delete tasks that are incompatible with the upgrade or no longer available.
4. To complete the upgrade, click OK.
