 Description   
Hi Robin,

Can you please advise if we can migrate the group permissions from one QB instance to the other running on a different system. Because we are in process of migrating our existing QB instance to a different system and we are recreating our projects in new QB instance due to Data center move and was looking if there is a way to migrate all the groups permissions from one instance to other, so that we can manage the same groups and permissions in the new instance.

Please advise.

Thanks
Madhu

You may write a program calling QB RESTful API to read group permissions from one instance and get it saved to another instance. Relevant API here:
http://wiki.pmease.com/display/QB60/Interact+with+Configuration+Authorizations
http://wiki.pmease.com/display/QB60/Interact+with+Group+Memberships

If relevant configuration/user/group does not exist at another server, you can also replicate them via RESTful API (read from existing server, then remove the id field, then save to another server).

When calling RESTful API to replicate between servers, make sure both server are running the same QB version.
