APEX

Forgive me if this is a question with an obvious answer, but I wanted to be sure. The core question is can I use APEX_APPLICATION_INSTALL to install just a page. Here is the detailed question for the benefit of others.

When I export and then import a page from a workspace on one machine to totally separate work space on a different machine I get the following error via the GUI:

"This page was exported from a different application or from an application in different workspace. Page cannot be installed in this application."

I of course came across Joel's blog (http://joelkallman.blogspot.com/2010/07/apexapplicationinstall.html) and the same information in documentation (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/apirefs.40/e15519/apex_app_inst.htm).

However, it is not clear if importing a page export (not an application exported) is supported by this package. I have tried quickly, and it seems to work, but that does not mean it is supposed to.

In my example, with a page import I assume I would just do the following (WS=JT, Parsing SCHEME=JT)

Connect to JT vai sql*plus and...

declare
l_workspace_id number;
begin
select workspace_id into l_workspace_id
from apex_workspaces
where workspace = 'JT';
--
apex_application_install.set_workspace_id( l_workspace_id );
apex_application_install.set_application_id(500);
apex_application_install.generate_offset;
apex_application_install.set_schema( 'JT' );
end;
/

Then run page import SQL

@f500_page_650.sql

Is that intended to work through the API?
