Export and import dashboards

Prev Next

Once you have fully defined your dashboard and monitors, the fastest way to migrate them to other ePO - On-prem servers is to export them and import them onto the other servers.

To import a dashboard, you must have access to a previously exported dashboard contained in an XML file.

A dashboard exported as an XML file can be imported to the same or a different system.
