Import an App

Studio allows you to import app configuration files previously generated through the export feature. To import an app (or module), go to Studio's homepage. Click Import an app to be redirected to the Import Application/Module page. Additionally, you can go to Global > Applications and click Import app.

Important

To be imported, configuration files must be in .xml or .xml.gz format.

The Import Application/Module page opens. Click Upload. In the file explorer window that pops up, select the configuration file (.xml) you want to import and click Open. Once the file is uploaded, the fields listed below will appear completed on the Configuration Content (Step 2) section, and you can edit them if necessary. Read the table to learn more.

Application Name

Contains the name of the app given to the configuration file at the time of exporting it from Studio. If you want to edit the name, change it using underscores between words (My_App).

Application Type to Import

Contains a drop-down menu including two app types: Web App or Universal App. You can select one of the two options available.
