How to manually order InterPlay's folders in Studio

Problem

AIS Designer provided a way to change the order of the folders destined for InterPlay in the Settings collection.

Following the migration to Studio, that is no longer possible. The only available workaround is to delete all folders up until a certain point, then recreate them in the needed order.

Updating the MongoDB is difficult, and rezipping a downloaded configuration (for the purpose of updating a file) makes it unreadable to Studio, which gives the error:

The import business model file you are importing is not correct. Only archive files with AI Suite Studio exports are accepted.


Resolution

There is an idea created for this, which will add this functionality in 3.0: https://fahideas.axway.com/ideas/FAH-I-32
In the meantime, you can workaround this by exporting and downloading the configuration from Studio, and:

  1. open the archive with 7zip
  2. from 7zip directly, click Edit
  3. in the text editor that opens, move the code blocks of the folders in the desired order
  4. save
  5. 7zip will bring out a popup, confirm updating the archive


For some reason, this only worked on Windows 10. On Windows 11, the popup does not appear and the update is not saved in the archive.
