Export an Application

Steps to export an application in the latest version of Operations Hub.

Before you begin

Log in to Configuration Hub.

About this task

To use or copy an application that was created on a different site, you must export the application, and then import it.
Tip: If you want to export multiple applications that use the same entities and queries, export them together (instead of exporting them individually).

Default applications in Operations Hub cannot be exported. If you want to export a default application, then make a copy of the application and export it.

For steps to export applications in the Operations Hub classic version, refer to Export an Application (Classic).

Procedure

  1. On the navigation panel, select Operations Hub > Applications.
    The existing list of applications appear.
  2. Right-click the application you want to export, and select Export App.
    You can also export multiple applications at a time. To do so:
    1. Select , and then select App Actions.
      A selection check box appears next to each application.
    2. Select the check box for all the applications you want to export.
      Note: To select/clear a check box, you must first select the application in the list.
    3. Right-click and select Export Apps.
    A confirmation message appears.
  3. Select Ok to confirm the export action.
  4. Required: In case, the application being exported contains queries that work with multiple data sources, then a data source conflict appears. Do the following to resolve the conflict:
    1. In the Select Datasources screen, select the compatible data sources.
    2. Select Export.
      Each application is exported as a .zip file, which contains:
      • a .zip file for each plug-in used in the application.
      • an .xml file for the rest of the components used in the application.
      Important: To avoid system related errors, do not modify original exported zip files and repackage them for import.

Results

The exported application is saved to the default download location of the browser.
