There are various reasons why you would need to export and import a Kiuwan Model. For example, you may have two different Kiuwan accounts and need the same model in both, or you may have migrated to Kiuwan On-Premises from a Saas account. 

Exporting your model

  1. Go to Model Management from the drop-down menu on the upper right corner. 
  2. Select the model you want to export on the left (in this example: My Model).

    where <technology> is any of the technologies supported by Kiuwan (Java, JSP, C#, etc)

    Warning

    These steps must be done for every technology file.

    Currently, there's not an option to upload more than one file at a time. Therefore, the next steps must be repeated for every technology.

    Be sure to select the en directory when uploading the files.

  8. Once the technology file is uploaded, select the target model (the one that was created in step 3).
