Importing Knowledge Modules in Synonym Mode

Although this is already covered in my previous post, I felt this thing needs special attention.
KMs cannot be migrated directly in Synonym mode, and importing in Duplication mode might have some problems if the interfaces using it are imported in Synonym mode. Simply because the ID of KM referenced in the interface and the ID of KM imported in Duplication mode wont match.
See the steps below to see how KMs are migrated in SYNONYM mode


1. Locate the Knowledge Module XML file on your file system and rename its prefix to “TRT_” instead of “KM_”
2. Right-click on any Folder of your Project and select “Import…> Import Procedure...” menu
3. Select “Synonym Mode INSERT_UPDATE”, go to the directory where your KM is stored on file system and select the KM, then click OK.

this is so helpful !!! its a workaround that works. Not even found on Oracle Documentation.
Did you ever find one for Security Profiles? Did you know you cant export/import a Security Profile to another environment?

Thanks Janet !
Unfortunately I did not try importing Security profiles in this particular project . Will check that whenever I get a chance
