If the app you are importing contains functionality that is dependent on a connection, you must first import the related connection. The connection migration must be complete for the app to be imported without error. The recommended sequence of migration for apps or reports that have connection dependencies is:

1. Connection

2. App

3. Report

For more information, see Migrating Connections.
