Hi,
I have created Template A, Thing A, Mashup A.
Then Duplicated Template A ( to Template B), created Thing B and connected it to Template B.
Now i want to duplicate Mashup A referring to Thing B.
Please let me know if there is any way to do the same.
Thanks & Regards,
Raj
Hi Raj,
Unfortunately, this is not currently supported. I'm curious – what is your use case?

Hi,
This functionality is not established yet. You may need to import your Thing B in Mashup A and change the bindings manually.
But there is an other way around to accomplish this:
1) Export Mashup A in XML format by using Import/Export -> Export To File.
2) Replace references of Thing A with Thing B in the XML file.
3) Import the XML file, post which you will be able to see the mashup A using duplicated Thing B instead of Thing A.

Hi Raj,
I think what you need to do is create your mashup as a 'Thing Template' mashup - the mashup will then be created with an 'Entity' parameter pre-designed.
You can then use this 'Entity' parameter wherever it is required within your mashup - configure the bindings of any widgets / services you want to use with the 'Entity' parameter.
You then have the ability to switch between the 'Entity' parameter value, which in your case will be Thing A, Thing B and so on.
Once you have selected a value for the 'Entity' parameter the mashup will be representative of the thing you have chosen - for example, your Thing B.
Does this help?
