In IBM Business
Automation Studio, you can export
projects or versions of projects so you can back them up, share them, or be published for users to
be able to run the project to do their work.
Before you begin
Before you export projects ensure you have Read permission or be a repository administrator.
For more information, see Managing access to the
repository.
Procedure
To export a project, complete the following steps:
-
Select Applications and then click the application, template, or toolkit
you want to export. Or, select Automations and select the workflow automation
you want to export.
Note: If Toolkits isn't available to you, your
Preferences are set to Basic.
-
To export a project, select the three-dot icon near Open and then select
Export. To export a version, select the three-dot icon beside the version and
select Export.
You can export the project to be shared or used as a backup or to be published. The most
recent version of the project will be exported. If a version doesn't exist, you are prompted to
create one.
Note: Regardless of the file format, when you export an application, dependent automation
services from external services, workflow automations, or decision automations are not
included.
-
Click Export.
-
Locate the directory you want to save the export file in, name the file, and then save
it.
What to do next
To continue developing the project or view the artifacts in it, import it into IBM Business
Automation Studio. To make the project available for users
in IBM
Business Automation Navigator, publish it. See Publishing applications.
