Export a ViewApp

You can export one or more ViewApps from the Templates folder to an aaPKG file. You can then import the ViewApps from the export file to another Galaxy.

To export a ViewApp

1. Open the IDE and display the Templates pane.

3. On the Home ribbon, in the Export area, select Selected, then As package.

   You can also export a ViewApp from the shortcut menu: right-click the ViewApp name, select Export, and then Selected object(s).

   The ViewApp Export Preferences dialog box appears with an option to export any graphics and other objects included with the ViewApp.

4. Select whether or not to export objects included in the View App and click OK.

   The Export Selected objects dialog box appears with a folder tree to specify where the exported file should be saved and a field to name the export file.

5. Select the folder to save the export file.

6. Assign a name to the export file.

   The default export file name is the name of the first selected ViewApp from the Template Toolbox.

7. Click Save.

   A horizontal bar shows the progress of the ViewApps being loaded into the export file.

8. Verify the export aaPKG file has been placed in the folder you specified.
