Configuration Export is the way that applications and miscellaneous configuration components are exported from PhixFlow. You may want to export your configuration for a number of reasons - e.g. to back up an application, or set of configuration components, you are working on; or so that you can import it somewhere else.

The Export Pane can be opened from the  Administration, which in the bottom right of the PhixFlow window. The Configuration Export pane contains the list of objects that are to be exported. The export pane can also be used to copy a set of configuration components.

Drag model elements (streams, collectors etc) from other panels into this pane, then click either the Export or Copy button.

You can also drag in actions that do not have a parent stream. These appear in the repository → Actions branch.

The data is exported as a zip file, which is temporarily saved in the download area. You should download the file as soon as it is available, as your administrator may have set an expiry time. 

On the Export Pane you may optionally enter a name and description for the file. The description will appear in

  • the download area
  • the header.xml file in the configuration export zip file
  • log file messages.
