\_Currently I don’t see any option to merge two object repository in Katalon.  
\_  
Question is **for what you want to merge 2 OR ???**

1)you want to **find a** selective unique objects from both OR and **then make it into a single OR**???  
or  
2)you have two OR with unique objects - which you want to combine into one?

**Below is the work around which you can try**

Suppose there are two projects with OR with unique objects then  
simply copy the set of OR from your  
project 1 \>\>\> object repository folder **to** project 2 \>\>\> object repository folder  
By this way you would be able to use all the objects of project 1 into project 2.

In UFT we can merge 2 ORs. If any duplicate/conflicting objects exists it checks and prompts on whether to involve those objects for merging.

In Katalon Studio 5.5, this option will be displayed when you save captured objects from your recording session:

Is that the right option you guys looking for?
