Abstract

• Export All the Application
• Export a Single Application

You can export Applications, Storages, Data, and Folders from your current Domain to another Domain in the same eLegere installation or in another one.

Learn how to export either all the Applications, Storages, Data, and Folders or just an individual application. In both the cases, the Home will prepare for you a file in .eap format containing everything you wanted to Export.

Info

The .eap file contains everything you have exported. See the Import Applications and Storages in a New Domain section to learn how to Import Applications, Storages, Data, and Folders through the .eap file.
