3579593 - Technical ID of story changes when transporting the story in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Symptom

When transporting the story, the technical ID of story is changed in SAC

Environment

SAP ANALYTICS CLOUD: 2025.1.6

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Login to SAC
  2. Go to Transport> Export > Content Network in the source tenant.
  3. Create an export package and select the story.
  4. Export the package to target tenant
  5. Go to Transport > Import > Content Network in the target tenant.
  6. Import the package.

Notice that technical ID of the story is changed

Cause

If the story already existed in the target tenant, when transporting the story, Overwrite function was not selected. That's why a copy of story gets created and technical ID of the story changes everytime story is transported.

Resolution

Enable the overwrite function when transporting the story so that story is not getting duplicated. That way story will retain it's technical ID even after transporting.
