How Setup Data Manager works

Setup Data Manager (SDM) uses the system's REST APIs to copy setup data.

This capability lets you copy a great range of setup data available in the suite and choose specific categories of setup data to copy. A small amount of setup data is not supported.

The changes made to setup data on the target server during the setup data transfer are written to the server’s audit trail, just as if they were entered manually on the target system.
