Error: Connection does not exist. But it does!

Lauri — Wed, 08 Jan 2025 20:57:31 GMT

I added some new filters to my usual Excel file containing all my filters. When I try to import it with an import task, it fails, and the log shows:

Error Importing FILTER with name 'BSHC_BlueprintOrg'. ERROR: The filter 'BSHC_BlueprintOrg' is invalid because the connection 'Blueprint_CHT' does not exist.

Yet, the connection exists, and I created a report template using it, and it generates reports.

I can manually create a new filter with that connection:

So why does importing fail with that error? Thanks for any ideas. (And I'm on NPrinting Feb 2024 SR3 but I didn't see that in the drop-down when creating this Question.)

Well, this is embarrassing. I forgot to assign the filters to the correct App (because I copied and pasted a set of filters, and then changed some details). Now it works.
