# Export

Export your bots to create backups, share configurations, or migrate between workspaces. Bot exports
include all flow logic, settings, and configurations in a portable JSON format.

## What's Included in Bot Exports

When you export a bot, the following elements are included:

### Flow Data

* **All blocks**: Every block in your bot flow with their configurations
* **Connections**: How blocks are linked together
* **Variables**: All custom variables and their settings
* **Conditional logic**: If/then conditions and routing rules

### Bot Settings

* **General settings**: Bot name, description, and basic configurations
* **Theme settings**: Colors, fonts, and visual customizations
* **Behavior settings**: Typing delays, transitions, and user experience options
* **Integration configurations**: Block settings (but not credentials)

### What's NOT Included

* **Credentials**: Security credentials are never exported
* **Response data**: User submissions and chat logs
* **Analytics**: Performance metrics and statistics
* **Published URLs**: Deployment-specific configurations

<Note>
  Exported bots are completely portable but will need new credentials configured when imported into
  different workspaces.
</Note>

### Export Naming

Exported files are automatically named using the format:

```
[bot-name]-[timestamp].json
```

For example: `lead-generation-bot-2024-01-15.json`

### File Format

Bot exports use JSON format with the following structure:

* **Metadata**: Bot information and export details
* **Blocks**: Array of all bot blocks with configurations
* **Edges**: Connections between blocks
* **Variables**: Custom variables and settings
* **Theme**: Visual styling configuration
