Can we create actions from one prod model to the other prod model?

In my organization, we have two prod models and one dev for both of them. Can we create an action in this case? The user asks to reflect the data from one UI page to another, but they are from two different models and a common dev. Is this doable?

    Yes, this can be done. In your Dev model, create an action importing the data from Prod 1 to the target module (in your Dev model). So when you are defining the import action, truly chose the Prod Model. Remember, all actions should be created from views, not the module.

    Make sure the data loads correctly. I am a bit of a nut, but it is very helpful to clean up the Action Name and Import Source name in order to keep things straight.

    Create a Revision in Dev and sync it to Prod 1 and Prod 2.

    Go into Prod 1 and make sure data is in the desired module

    Log into Prod 2 and run the action

    Hi @rob_marshall Thanks for the input, but here is the catch Prod A is in one workspace and Prod B is in one workspace in this case how can we map the data flow from model to other?

    Workspaces don't matter as when you set up the action from Dev to Prod 1, that workspace is defined for the action.
