Step 3 - Object selection

In this step, select which objects will be imported along with your new site. Choose the categories displayed in the tree on the left side of the wizard.

The following options are available in the root of the tree:

Global object selection

• Load default selection
• Select all objects - selects all of the default objects.
• Select only new objects - selects only those objects that do not already exist in the system (clears selection for existing objects).
• Deselect all objects - clears the selection for all default objects.

Import settings

• Assign all objects to the imported site (recommended) - if enabled, all imported site related objects will be assigned to the imported site.
• Run the site after import - if enabled, the system attempts to start the new site immediately after the import is finished.
• Delete incomplete site when import fails - if enabled, the system deletes the site if any part of the import process fails.
• Do not import objects where parent object is missing - if enabled, the import process skips any child objects whose parent objects is not present in the target system.
• Import tasks (recommended) - serves no purpose when creating new sites.
• Log staging synchronization tasks - if enabled, the system logs staging tasks reflecting all changes made by the creation of the new site. Check this option to synchronize the imported data to other servers connected through .
