Smart contract copy

Question

So I am in a permissioned blockchain setup, using Quorum as a client.

I have deployed a private smart contract to members A and B, and now I have the need to redeploy it, giving access to member C.

Is there a way to copy the whole smart contract data and redeploy it? (Instead of "manually" querying all the data from the old contract and putting it in the new one.)

Answer 1

Currently there's no way to extend a private contract to other parties (although this is on the Quorum/Tessera roadmap). So at the moment, you would need to do it manually or within the contract itself by reading data from the old contract.
