Copying and Pasting Document Types

You can copy document types between any Brokers to which you have access in one of two ways:

Copy and paste.

Export and Import. When you use the export-import functionality, My webMethods places the exported document type information in a file. The administrator for the destination Broker then imports the file. To use the export-import functionality, you must have administrator access. For more information about using the export-import functionality, see Exporting and Importing Broker Metadata.

Note:
If a document type with the same name already exists on the Broker, My webMethods appends "_1" to the document type name. You cannot copy and paste a document type that already exists on the target Broker. However, you can import a document type that already exists on the target Broker. The Broker replaces the existing document type with the imported one.
