Ability to download / upload Custom Palette

User develops Custom Global Palettes (Manage > Customization > Palette > New custom palette) in DEV environment and creates reports using the custom palettes.

User exports new reports from DEV to UAT.

Custom Palettes are not included in the Export Deployment unless a Full Content Store Export including User Account Information is done.

There is no way for the Custom Palette to be downloaded or exported from DEV and imported into UAT and PROD.

User must re-create the custom palettes in each environment.

    A temporary solution is to edit the content store manually. All you need to do is create the styles in the new environments, and then copy a specific string over from one server to the other.

    This short database query will guide you:

    SELECT P3.VALUE AS LABEL,

    N.NAME AS REF_NAME,

    P89.*

    FROM

    dbo.CMOBJECTS O

    LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.CMCLASSES C ON O.CLASSID = C.CLASSID

    LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.CMOBJNAMES N ON O.CMID = N.CMID AND N.ISDEFAULT = 1

    LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.CMOBJPROPS3 P3 ON O.CMID = P3.CMID AND P3.PROPNAME = 'ScreenTip'

    LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.CMOBJPROPS89 P89 ON O.CMID = P89.CMID

    WHERE

    C.CLASSID = 263

    The string is contained in dbo.CMOBJPROPS89.CONTENT.
