  3. Select the model and export it.
  4. The export failed with error message "too big for client export. Please use server-local export: A file exceeds maximum size for remote export (2048MB)".

Cause

Too large data to export the model with data included.

Resolution

One solution here is to export the model from tenant A to tenant B without including data using the content network, and then import the data separately due to large model, as the following steps:

  1. Export the model from tenant A without including data using the content network.
  2. Export date from model as CSV file with filtering one instance (ex: Date or Year). If large model, you should split into multiple files by filtering. 
  3. Download all exported CSV files.
  4. Import model content to tenant B using the content network.
  5. Do import job with all exported CSV files in the model of tenant B.
