Hi,

Currently I am working on Asset backup project and manually importing Programs from Production environment to Sandbox. Is there a way of automating this process.

Yes, you can export assets from Prod and import them to Sandbox.

But you're reading them, storing them temporarily, then writing to the other instance. It's not like you're automating an independent connection between the 2 instances, you're in complete control of what is exported and what is imported.

(By the way, this is not a particularly easy task and will involve quite a learning curve. Nevertheless, it's possible!)

The exact process you're using with linked instances can't be automated.

You can use the many REST API endpoints to backup Programs, their Local Assets, their Members and statuses, etc. to an offline database.

@sanfordwhiteman Thank you for the response. Not the current process but does that mean using Marketo REST API's we can automate process of moving assets (Programs, segments, snippets) from Production to Sandbox. Just doing a double check.
