migrate one designer instance to another designer instance

I've been looking at a question that was asked before here: https://community.dataiku.com/t5/Using-Dataiku/Sync-a-project-between-two-different-exploration-inst...

What is a good way to export a bundle of a project (or multiple projects) from one designer instance and then import it into a different designer instance? I plan to do it with many projects, so my intention was to use the Python API option in order to automate this process.

I saw the answer in the link above was focused on the export part when using the Python API, but how can I import a bundle into the new designer node? most of the documentation is relevant only to automation node imports.

Also, is there a good way to export a bundle zip file not to a local storage directory, but to a S3 folder location?

Hi, please don't double post, it's a waste of everybody's time. For exporting multiple projects see:

To import into designer see "import a Project archive":

With regards to S3 you can store them in S3 but when you run your Python code to import or export projects you will need to have them local storage. One option is to use s3fs to make the bucket appear as local storage.

Thanks
