Local models dissapeared

[Data_consumer]

Help! I changed my machine, and copied my local models folder to the new machine. The models were shown as folders, and could not be opened.

I moved the files back to my old machine, and they are still listed ad folders, with individual elements inside the folder.

Is there any way to fix this??

Hello you likely copied and pasted the workspace / workflows as folders.

I’d recommend trying to export the original working copies from the Analytics Platform and then using the import functionality.

You could try to take your existing folders, and zip them. Then rename them from .zip to .knwf if you don’t have the working copies anymore.

Thanks! I tried the zip and rename but it does not work! either it didnt import anything, or brought it as a folder.

Does this approach work in your environment?

Hi @Data_consumer,

Could you share what the workflow ‘folder’ contains inside of it?

Yes this works on my end. I copied an existing workflow that is represented as a folder, zipped, renamed, then imported.

Yes, but I need to do it tomorrow. Ill post a screenshot of the content👍

Thanks!

@wkhan it works! I had multiple copies of the models, and in one of them some files were missing. Zipping and renaming works!

Thanks a million!

Glad you were able to find those, and that it worked!
