Create an Enterprise Site from a Template?

[Anonymous User]

A colleague created an Enterprise Site and my job is to create one for a different project that is formatted exactly the same. I tried to open his and do a "save as," and don't see that option, and I tried to create a new site and use a template, but I don't see an option for that either.

Is it possible to use a template to create an Enterprise Site?

Thank you,

Have a  look at ESRI PowerShell DSC.  I don't know of a way to export/import an existing site, but it will allow you to make your future instances repeatable.

Thanks, but that's a little out of my league. I was thinking more along the lines of, "Create new site with template." or, "File->Save as."

Hi Randy,

The ability to clone an Enterprise site will be available in ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8, releasing in Q1 next year. That would give you the ability to create a site that can be used as a template, clone it, then modify/customize it for the next project.

Great! Here's a screenshot of the option that will be in 10.8 - similar to your idea above:

@Anonymous User is there any way to do this in 10.7.1? Ie copying a folder on the Portal machine, or something like that?
