Partial configuration export

    You can create and manage sync packages that contain specific entities. For example, you can create a package that contains just your Components, or just your Custom styles. Each package you create is saved as a Sync package entity. You can create as many packages as you need and manage them individually. This is useful if you only want to export something specific from a website or design system.

    Creating a sync package

    To create a package:

    1. Navigate to Site Studio > Sync packages > Manage packages
    2. Click Add package
    3. On the next screen, give you package a name and optional description. This will help you manage your packages if you create many of them


       
    4. Within Package requirements, select the entity types you want to include using the menu on the left
    5. Check each entity to include within your package


       
    6. Click the Build package button. This will run a process that calculates all the dependencies of your selected entities and build a package including them


       
    7. Within the Package content section you can see all the entities included


       
    8. Optionally uncheck any entities you do not want included within your package



      Or instead of individually selecting entities, you can choose to exclude specific entity types from being included within the dependancy calculation using the Exclude entity types section


       
    9. Click Save package to save the package.

    Downloading a sync package

    Once you have created a sync package you can download it as a file.

    1. Navigate to Site Studio > Sync packages > Manage packages
    2. In the table packages, click Export package as file.
