Add or manage External Instance

External Instances are not available in Nodinite 7. Nothing in 7.x uses one, because their only consumer, Import / Export, stays out of 7.x. Don't add new External Instances.

Up to Nodinite 6

Up to Nodinite 6, an External Instance held three fields:

Field Meaning
Name A name for the target environment
Description Free text
URI The address of the target instance's Web API

An Export to the External Instance called the target's Web API, which required an administrator on the target.

What to Use Instead

There's no built-in tool to copy configuration between Nodinite environments in 7.x. Read Import / Export for the details.
