Hi,

There are projects that are deployed from one Environment to another Environment by Extension method.
1st Env ---> Entities are Exported by Extension type

2nd Env ---> Extension is imported in to the Env
Now these Entities can't be edited, is there any way we can edit the Entities, mainly Mashups... there are few bugs need to be fixed over here

is there any configuration that can be done to edit the entities that are imported by extension in this scenario ?

Thanks,
Shashi.

Not sure this is a good idea. It is a best practice to mark entities in extensions as non-editable, otherwise you will have problems upgrading that extension. This is documented here.

If you MUST, I guess you could extract the extension and update the XML so the entities become editable and that pack the files again before importing.

    Hi @Rocko ,

    This idea failed by creating more bugs, isn't there any other way, because all the customers I have been interacting having this issue.

    Thanks,
    Shashi.
