Description of problem: Importing an automate model from a 3.2 env into 5.5. beta2 causes invalid URI paths. Only way to correct the issue is to recreate the automate domain & classes.

Josh, From a state field in a state machine you only point to instances not methods. Methods typically just have a name and instances typically have a fully qualified name or a partially qualified name starting at the namespace. In the customers case they have a method called ValidateVMName, sitting in place of an instance name. And that leads to the failure. If they just want to run a method they would have to leave the field value empty and set the name of the method in on_entry. More over the method that they are attempting to call is empty, it doesn't do anything. Can you please ask the customer if they want to call the method or call an instance that calls the method. Typically if you look at any state machine the state is a relationship that points to an instance which points to a method in the same class.
Spoke to Josh, he agreed on closing it.
