Exporting Asset
The export operation creates an archive file on the file system. The archive file contains a copy of the assets that you have exported. The archive file can be imported afterwards into the same CentraSite registry or into a new registry.
*To export an asset
1. In CentraSite Business UI, access the Advanced Search panel in one of the following ways:
*Click the Browse link in the upper-left corner of the menu bar.
*Click the Search icon next to the Scope list. The default search scope is Assets.
This displays a list of assets in the Search Results page.
2. Click the asset you want to export.
This opens the Asset Details page. Also, the actions bar displays a set of actions that are available for working with the displayed asset.
3. On the actions bar of the asset, click Export.
The Export dialog box displays the selected asset.
4. Expand the Advanced Settings to display a list of the additional export options.
5. Specify the options as required.
6. After you have selected the export options, click Apply Settings.
This opens the Export Preview page. The Export Preview page displays the list of selected objects and its dependent objects. The checkbox beside each object indicates whether or not the object should be included in the export set. By default, all displayed objects are included in the export set.
To remove an object from the export set, clear the corresponding checkbox. This removes the object and all of its dependent objects (if any) from the export set.
7. Click Export to start the export operation.
If none of the object is selected for export, the Export button is disabled.
The Export Progress popup displays the export progress bar.
8. Click Download to download the export archive file.
The Download button is disabled until the completion of the entire export operation.
This starts the creation of the archive file. The default location to which the archive file is downloaded is My Documents\Downloads.
