Import App from json/zip - links break to other applications in Retool Cloud

We have a suite of apps and embedded modules in retool cloud as well mobile applications. In order to test these applications, especially mobile apps and embedded modules that require publishing a release to test without affecting other users we've created another retool cloud environment to do development / testing.

When we export from one cloud environment and import app from json/zip into another all of the links to other applications in the app break. When in edit mode we just see the GUID, even if the name of the app is exactly the same and the application was originally installed from the development / testing cloud environment.

Has anyone else experienced this and come up with a good solution to not have to go through each application and adjust the links in the environment the application was installed to?

Thanks!

Hi @Lee, on an Enterprise plan, we could set up Source Control to sync Retool apps to a Github repo and then sync them down to another instance. This should keep the app references without having to update them every time as when we do with a manual export/import.
