import/export

At a glance

The community member is requesting a feature to move apps between self-host and cloud via an import/export option. Another community member mentions that this is a known feature request and provides a link to an issue to follow and vote on. The discussion then explores the idea of using the export feature to backup client sites to a repository, and whether there is a way to automate this process. While the export feature already exists, the import functionality is not yet implemented.

hi @Oleg Isonen , would be great if there was a way to move apps between self-host and cloud via an import / export option. Any possibility?

@Oleg Isonen, this might be a connected idea?

I have Webstudio cloud account
I want to build client sites
I want to backup their sites to a repo in case something ever goes wrong or they want to move to self-hosting for some reason

Would this export .wstd file be a good way to do that? Would there be a way to automate this as a backup on git?

OOleg Isonen

yes

OOleg Isonen

in fact export already basically exists when you use the CLI

OOleg Isonen

but we don't have import implemented yet to get it back from that data

Ok, thanks. I haven't tried the export feature yet as I have no desire to deal with the self-hosting. I like the 1 click option. haha

OOleg Isonen

same thing as when you download the export
