You can't duplicate or export an app from a Managed Space at the moment. This means if you delete the unpublished (personal/shared) version of the app you totally lose access to being able to further develop it or recover the back-end contents.

This is pretty critical as you need to be super careful to never delete any apps (or at least back them up regularly) that have linked published apps at pain of having to start the app from scratch! 

I believe you may be able to export apps from Managed Spaces using the APIs but it's not possible in the UI which it should be.

this needs to be available in the Console.
The API only supports MOVE, which - will remove the app from the managed space and delete reload schedules and so forth. When SaaS/QCG is used to develop apps for use in a QAP environment and the apps need to be deployed to another environment such as QAP via automation, this makes everything extremely complicated. please add the ability to EXPORT via console and via API.

Hi,

This is definitely one of the most if not the most important modification, mainly from a version control perspective. Working in a collaborative way is beautiful in theory, however, can be very messy. So, having one true copy of the published app in the shared space is not feasible, as changes can be done by different users on that app, and mistakes and issues can happen. Even if you have a version control system, it would be much simpler to just copy the published app and start working on the "latest" version of that app.

Hopefully this feature will be available soon as I can't emphasize enough the importance of that.

Thanks,

Luiz DP
