     Note

     Import plugins & import form data are new features in Joget DX. These import options are only applicable to apps that has been exported from Joget DX only. If the target environment has an existing version of the app and: If override app variables are checked, app variables such as counters (such as the running number created by use of ID Generator Field) will be overridden. If override app variables are not checked,  app variables that are intended to be overwritten will not carry over.

   1. At the top left, click on the Versions button.

Caution: If the app's transaction records are huge, export and import of the app could take a long time and may cause a performance issue for other Joget users. If you have a lot of data records, it is better to use a database utility to perform a database SQLdump.
