Model Archives : Automation & Tenant administration
Hello !
It would be great to have automatic quick-wins regarding Model Archive Management !
ALM & Archives :
When we need to move a large number of developments (or time management switch) into production, we always try to do a "Copy & Archive" first.
However, this task is manual and potentially error-prone. It would be interesting to include it as a possibility directly in the ALM.
ex:
Clearing & Managing Bulk Archives :
In our Tenant, we have a lot of model created for Training purposes or Archives un-archived for comparaison purposes.
Those models are sometimes let deployed. It would be great to be able to manage thoses models automatically.
On the administration console :
Behind able to see every model with a "Last User Activity date" and behind able to filter on those.
It would also great to actions that can be done in the model settings directly into the administration console (time saving)
Automation with API / Cloudworks :
I believe it would be helpful to have a call on API sector to enable us to switch a model states- or "Copy & Archive".
Moreover, It would be great if it could take arguments other than Model ID & Workspace ID.
Ex : I want to archive all model on my Training Workspace with no user activity over the last 15 weeks)
Allowing us to have this type of API call would allow us to more easily manage our tenant.

+1 I really hope we can have some ALM enhancements and out of the box automation/semi-automation delivered soon.
Can I invite anyone interested on this topic to take a look at this other Idea I posted a while ago :
and share their comments ? I'm sure that the points I mentioned there would be very relevant for many global use cases ?
I'm taking the opportunity to tag @eschera on here as well

Hi all, the ability to automate copying and archiving models does not appear to be presently available in Anaplan.
This ability has been requested as far back as of October 2019.

Thanks Joshuha for clubbing it altogether. I will also try and push it through our Customer Success BP.
Def one important gap to fill.
