Import/Export

Earl LewisSep 2 2015 — edited Sep 2 2015

Is there any way, inside SQL Developer to save an import or export "specification", i.e. a group of settings that you can reuse for the same operation over and over again? This would be something along the lines of a data pump parameter file. I'm familiar with data pump (I don't want to move data between databases) and the current import/export features and I've not seen this anywhere.

Whenever you walk through an import or export operation you have to answer a whole bunch (ok, quite a few) of questions and it would be really nice if you could answer these questions, save your answers and then reuse/modify your answers until you get exactly what you want. I find myself going through the procedure about 4-5 times on imports until I get it just right, and have to answer all the questions all the way through each time.

Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate the fact that import/export have been made relatively easy with the tools SQL Developer provides. It just seems that it would be pretty trivial to save a group of settings and then recall them if you wanted to reuse them.

Does anyone else experience the same thing? Maybe I'm just doing it wrong.

Sincerely curious,

Earl
