Exporting a Resource

Export projects, file system resources, schemas, or zip files to an external file system.

When you export a resource, a copy of the resource is made for the external file system and the original resource remains unaltered; however, caution should be exercised when exporting resources at the file level. Referential integrity may be lost as referenced files are not automatically exported.

Note: Using an external tool to process an exported resource can cause the export and subsequent import to be incomplete and unsuccessful.
  1. Select File > Export from the main menu bar.

    The Export wizard opens.

  2. Expand General, select File System, and click Next.

    The File System dialog opens.

  3. In the left pane, select the project or folder that contains the resource you want to export.

    Its contents display in the right pane.

  4. In the right pane, select the resources that you want to export.
  5. In the To directory field, browse for the destination directory that you want to export the file into.
  6. Select any of the following options:
    • Overwrite existing files without warning
    • Create directory structure for files
    • Create only selected directories
  7. Click Finish to export the specified resources to the destination location.
