Moving projects from the test environment to the production environment

After successfully creating and testing projects in the test environment, you now want to move those projects to the production environment. You also need to propagate updates from the testing environment to the production environment as necessary. Although it sounds complicated, moving new and updated projects from the test environment to the production environment is actually quite straightforward, as explained below.

1. Export the project from the test environment as described in Exporting a project.
2. Import the test project to the production environment as described in Importing a project.

3. Edit the connection settings to point to the production data source and data warehouse.

   For more information, see Setting up Landing Zone and Data Source connectionsand Setting up a data warehouse connection respectively.
