Export

ExportSettings

Export tab is used to export entities from the application to JSON/CSV/Excel format for version control. Entities can then be imported to the application using api/v1/import. Exported entities have reference id-s, which will be used to either create/update objects on import. Imported entities can be deleted using /api/v1/delete.

Exportable entities

You can export following entities:

  • Business rules - Supports JSON/ZIP/CSV/Excel (For CSV/Excel we do not export test case references)

  • Attribute relations - Supports CSV/Excel

  • Attribute term relations - Supports CSV/Excel

  • Attributes - Supports CSV/Excel

  • Connections - Supports JSON/ZIP

  • Dynamic rules - Supports JSON/ZIP

  • Parameters - Supports JSON/ZIP

  • Terms - Supports CSV/Excel

  • Term relations - Supports CSV/Excel

  • Test cases - Can be exported from test cases page

  • Test suites - Supports JSON/ZIP

  • Variables - Supports JSON/ZIP

  • Webhooks - Supports JSON/ZIP

Exports that reference glossary terms by name (term relations, attribute term relations, term custom fields, term mentions in descriptions) write them in the portable term reference format, so the files re-import without editing.

Export types

User can also choose between export types, where:

  • ZIP – exports objects as separate JSON files packaged into ZIP archive

  • JSON – exports objects as JSON array, which will be a single JSON file

  • CSV – Simple comma separated values file

  • Excel.xlsx workbook with the same columns as the CSV format; convenient for opening directly in spreadsheet tools without import wizards
