Use this method to move or copy only foundational records in a hybrid domain
configuration.
You can implement a hybrid approach by maintaining some types of record in a parent domain and some types in child domains. Generally, the parent domain contains foundational records and the child domain contains higher-level records, such as widgets. The following types of record are considered foundational records.

* Bucket groups
* Buckets
* Scripts
* Breakdown sources
* Indicator sources
* Filters
* Breakdowns
* Managed sources
* Manual breakdowns
* Breakdown mappings
* Breakdown relations
