Partial data transfer

Fab Woo

In order to keep certain collections in sync between environments, it would be great to have the option to only transfer data of certain collections instead of cloning the whole environment content.

+1 the Import Export Plugin is broken/not maintained/does not work with complex collections.

Hiroki Saito

+1 on this.

We're running multiple environments and often need to make small content changes between them. Being able to partially copy data instead of copying the whole lot from one environment to another would be incredibly useful.

Hiroki SaitoThis is already possible using the import export entries plugin. (not the strapi core feature)

KiwiCoder import export entries plugin is not being maintained anymore. I was able to fix the errors with the current version of Strapi but it fails for import/export collections with relations to other collections as well as certain content types.

This! Honestly can’t belive this proposal isn’t more popular.
Our use case:
We host multiple strapi instances with identical schemas to keep them isolated for easier content management. However, there are cases where we would need to share certain entries between instances. It would be great if the transfer funcion would support partial copy where you can select certain pieces of the content to be copied, with all corresponding relations.
