    Is It Possible To Import Forms and Maintain GUIDs?

    When you export a form, it zeroes all of the GUIDS (presumably so that you can create multiple instances from the form template).

    Is it possible to set all of the GUIDS in the file so that you can import a form and maintain all of the GUIDs? This is so that we can export forms from dev to live and maintain the GUIDs (which we use in some our Xslt Email transforms, s they don't change, unlike the captions).

    If it's for moving between environments you could simply move it on db level

    Or I can also share the code that does the export and you can modify it so that it doesn't zero the GUIDS

    Thanks for the quick response!

    :)

    I can manually set the GUIDs, the form is only four fields. Will the import pick up the GUIDs already, or will I need to code my own import?

    Looking at the code you'll need to code your own custom import that doesn't clear the id's https://gist.github.com/TimGeyssens/a0a9988a68705cf66800
