Manage external content

An External Content item can be managed from the IDE using standard options from the right-click shortcut menu or from the Edit options of the IDE menu bar.

A ViewApp containing apps designed to display external content can be exported from one Galaxy and imported to a ViewApp in another Galaxy. The External Content editor is capable of recognizing a new media type from the imported app.

An External Content item can be:

• Exported to an aaPKG file

• Imported from an aaPKG file

• Included in a Galaxy backup

• Restored from a Galaxy backup

• Included in an export of layouts or ViewApps that have External Content items associated with them
