# Import/export

OTAP support enables you to easily import/export schemas from test to production or from environment A to environment B. While using this all IDs and references will stay the same making it very easy to migrate your workbooks as well. Schemas can be migrated between different database drivers. Importing a schema will only import the schema structure, data is not migrated.

### Export Schema

To export a schema click on the chosen schema and on the top right of the schema screen you will see ‘Export’ button. One click on the export button will download the schema as a Json file. Save the file locally, this can then be imported to the environment of your choosing.

#### Important

When importing a schema into a target environment, ensure that the **schema name** and **label** are unique within the selected connection. If a schema with the same name already exists, the import may fail due to a name conflict. If required, edit the exported schema to use a unique name and label before importing.

### Import Schema

To import a schema to your environment head to the schema tab and you will see an import button.

Here you can connect to select the connection where to import your schema. Upload the Json file that has been exported, if you are important in the same environment as where you exported, be sure to rename the label and table.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.infotopics.com/writebackextreme/features/management-console/schemas/import-export.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
