Import a Program A program can be imported from one Marketo subscription to another. For instance, you can create a program in a sandbox and then import it into your live subscription. Also, you can import a pre-built program from the Marketo Program Library. FYI Marketo is now standardizing language across all subscriptions, so you may see lead/leads in your subscription and person/people in docs.marketo.com. These terms mean the same thing; it does not affect article instructions. There are some other changes, too. Learn more. What's in this article?

Impact on External Assets During Program Imports Programs use external assets like email templates, landing page templates, images, forms, tokens, and program tags. You have the ability to configure how landing page templates and program tags are handled, and Marketo automatically manages the rest. Email Templates: Email templates are automatically imported and created unless one with the same name exists. Landing Page Templates: Landing page templates are imported into the design studio. You can use conflict rules to configure behavior when a template with the same name exists. Using the default rule, a number will be appended to a landing page template if one with the same name exists. For example, a landing page template named Standard Template 1 will be created if one named Standard Template exists. Images: Images used by landing pages are imported into the design studio unless one with the same name exists.
Tokens: Tokens that live outside of a program will be converted to local tokens during the import process. Program Tags: You can use conflict rules to control how program tags that do not exist in the destination account will be treated. Using the default rule will create the program tags, or you can choose to ignore the tags. Forms: External forms will automatically be imported into the design studio unless one with the same name exists. Caution When importing a program, landing pages/emails that contain snippets/dynamic content will be skipped. Watch a Video
