Exporting and importing content allows you to copy a space and its contents from one
location in SkyVault to
another, or from one SkyVault repository to another.
This differs from a simple copy of a space from one location to another because in addition to copying sub spaces and content items, it includes all rules, workflow, properties, and metadata associated with that space.
Exporting a space and its contents bundles all the content into an SkyVault Content Package
(ACP). Importing the ACP into a new location expands the package to the original structure of
the space.
Note: There are a number of limitations when using export and import:
- You can perform an export or import between compatible versions of SkyVault only. This usually means using the same version of SkyVault.
- You can use export and import on folders and contents only. For example, you can't use this function to export or import a site. If you need to export a site, see Export Web Site for more information.
