Cloning/copying asset from another realm, asset shared between realms

Manager UI
1

Hello,

I’m using OpenRemote to setup several realms all containing very similiar assets with many attributes. Cloning such asset within realm is simple using clone/copy icon but is it possible to make clone of an asset in realm B from asset in realm A?

Another question is regarding “shared” asset between realms - can we create asset visible globally in all realms in OR system? Example of such asset is Chirpstack MQTT agent - even if I have single Chirpstack server but have multiple realms do I have to create separate MQTTAgents to use in asset’s attributes in every particular realm?

Regards,

Krzysztof

Hi!

No, you cannot place assets “globally” outside of a realm.
Sometimes the alternative of making an asset ‘public’ works, for unauthenticated READ access.

Cloning an asset from one realm to the other is not possible through the UI.
But you can do this quite easily through modifying the database.
Every asset has a realm column you can edit the name of, which should be enough.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

Great solution with database table modification! It really speeds up things.

Thanks! :smiley:
