Exporting Elements
Folders or elements in a package, can be exported to your hard drive so that they can be shared with partners or developers. A folder or element is exported to a ZIP file and saved on your hard drive. The ZIP file can then be unzipped into the ns directory of a package on the server. Locking information is not exported.
To export an element or folder
1. In Package Navigator view, select the folder or element that you want to export to your hard drive.
2. Right-click the element or folder and click Export from Server.
3. In the Save As dialog box, select the location on your hard drive where you want the exported element or folder to reside. Click Save.
This exports the element or folder to a ZIP file and saves it on your hard drive. The ZIP file can then be published on another server.
Note:
The Export from Server option is not the same as the File > Export option. With File > Export, you can export files from the Workbench to the file system.
