Setup Tasks allow for export and import of setup task as a CSV File package (zip file). If supported, scope can be applied to export a subset of the CSV File package data via Export Criteria. Export Criteria can be easily configured via the FlexDeploy during manual file creation. In the case, scope cannot be applied, please see other supported Oracle Saas FSM object types as an alternative solution.
