Exporting an application

In Cloudera Data Visualization, you can export dashboards and applications to move them between environments (for example, from development or testing to production) or to create backups.

  1. Click VISUALS in the main navigation bar.
  2. Select the app that you want to export.
    This updates the action buttons available in the top-right corner of the preview area.
  3. Click Export.

    The Export Visual Artifact modal appears.

    This action exports the app to your default download folder.

    In this example, the Sample App is used.

    You can also click to open the Suppmental menu of the app tile and initiate the export.

  4. Optional: Change the name of the file you are exporting.
  5. Click Export.
    This starts the download of the export file to your default download folder. You can confirm the success of the export by finding the file on your system.

    The exported file includes the definition of the app and any subgroups it may have, the visuals and dashboards in the app, and all necessary datasets. When used, the export file also includes custom style dependencies.
