Exporting WorldServer objects

You can easily export one or several types of objects from WorldServer.

About this task

To start the steps for exporting objects go to the Management > Administration > Export Objects - Step 1 of 2 page.

Procedure

  1. If you intend to export more than one type of object, select Export list. This option keeps the selected objects visible as you move between object types, creating a complete list of all the objects you have selected for export.
  2. Select an object type from which you want to select objects.
  3. Select the desired objects for export.
  4. Repeat these steps for each object type from which you want to select objects.
    If you decide not to export a selected object, you can always go back to its object type again and deselect it.
  5. When your list is complete, click Next.
  6. In the Export Objects - Step 2 of 2 page, choose one of the following options:
    • Primary objects only. Export only the objects you explicitly selected.
    • Include referenced objects. Export the selected objects and all objects they reference. The referenced objects are identified onscreen with a star.
  7. When your list of objects is ready, click Export. (Or to further refine your list, click Previous.)
  8. As the export completes, you are prompted to save the ExportObjectDefinitions.tml file. Click Save and browse to the desired location. You may import this file on another server later.
