While Importing the analysis file(Items) in the library during the migration process fails with the error: Unresolved dependencies found during import.Item '' ('null') is missing. Required by 1 items.

While Importing the analysis file(Items) in the library during the migration process fails with the error: Unresolved dependencies found during import.Item '' ('null') is missing. Required by 1 items.

When importing items from Spotfire Analyst >> Tools Menu >> Library Administration >> Import, you may get the below message:

All 4 items inserted.
Handling dependencies.
Unresolved dependencies found during import.
Item '97e754cf-0248-4e52-b358-9e2bbfc6c6c2' ('null') is missing. Required by 1 items.
Item 'c1f7128e-70ba-4bd8-8ef2-a59a54b8d8fd' ('null') is missing. Required by 1 items."

The above warning message clearly indicates that during the import operation, there are few dependent elements like information link,joins,filters, column elements,data source which is required by the analysis file is missing. To resolve the issue, firstly, copy the missing GUID and search in the library in both the environments i.e. from where you have exported/imported.

To find the missing element, use the below search syntax.

item_id::<Missing id of the element from the log>

Example: item_id::<97e754cf-0248-4e52-b358-9e2bbfc6c6c2>

Once you figure out the missing element, you can export the desired(missing) element from your old environment to the new one.

If you know the analysis file name, you can find all the dependent elements by the below step:

Run the below command/syntax, in the Library Administration search window, in that environment from where you are exporting the desired items i.e. by connecting Spotfire Analyst to the source Spotfire environment.

Syntax: required_by(item_id::<Enter the id of the analysis file>)

Note: 1) To get the analysis file id, Open Spotfire Analyst >> Tools >> Library Administration >> Select the analysis >> Right Click on it >> Edit Properties >> Properties Tab. Now copy the id value.

2) Click on the root folder then only search for the above command in the search box of Library Administration.

Now, you will see a list of dependent elements which are used in the analysis file and now accordingly export all the items which are required. https://docs.tibco.com/pub/sfire-analyst/10.3.0/doc/html/en-US/TIB_sfire-analyst_UsersGuide/lib/lib_searching_the_library.htm
