XML-Export

The export function is intended for power users and administrators. Ron must have this function enabled in his user role first if he wants to use it.

Prerequisite: The user role must have appropriate permissions to initiate exports in the Jobs module. For users without this permission, the Export button and the Export page are hidden.

The export function allows Ron to export all jobs matching a filter to a file at one time. However, he must bear in mind that jobs that do not appear in the list will also be exported if they match the selected filter and search criteria.

All the data is exported in XML format. In addition, the file also contains a time stamp so that you can identify when the export was carried out. For the variable types Asset Selector and Template, references to the corresponding objects are also exported.

The system does not export metadata for the type definition. Instead, it only exports a reference to the relevant type used.

If you trigger multiple exports, the export jobs are added to a queue. You can view the queue in the job overview via Exports and cancel requested exports or exports in progress if necessary. Completed exports are available for download.

To exit the export page, click on Search in the title bar. This will take you back to the job overview.
