Step 4: Selecting application data
If you are exporting from an SDL Tridion Sites or SDL Tridion installation that includes Translation Manager, User Generated Content, Experience Manager, the deprecated Context Expression Extension and/or a custom extension, or the External Content Library then the items you export and their dependencies may contain associated with these software components. You can select to export the application data.
About this task
The items in the intermediate package you are exporting may contain application data associated with one or more software components in the source SDL Tridion Sites or SDL Tridion system. If this is the case, you see a step called Application Data Categories, showing a list of software components (all selected by default).
If you do nothing and click Next, Content Porter exports the following:
- The application data of all the items that you selected for export, if associated with one of the software components you see
- The application data of the dependencies of those items, if associated with one of the software components you see
- Any system-wide application data, if associated with one of the software components you see
Only if you have a specific reason not to want to export certain application data, make changes in this screen.
