You can export an entire Mbook project with its subprojects, reactions, experiments and documents, just by clicking on the “Export Project” button (only available for Group or Project Managers).
After clicking the “Export Project” button, a new pop-up dialog will be displayed that will allow you to include documents from the project’s various entities (e.g., subprojects, reactions, and experiments). Once you have clicked on the 'Export button', you will be shown the dialog box below:
.
Once the export is complete, you will get a notification displayed on your screen that allows you to download it as a zip archive.
You will also receive an email with the notification.
The generated ZIP file will contain:
-an XML file for the project
-a folder for each reaction
-an XML file for the reaction
-a folder named "experiments" containing a ZIP file for each of the experiments in this reaction
-this ZIP file (experiment) contains two files: an XML file with the experiment, and a SDF file for the experiment
- a recursive list of the folder/subfolder structure mapping the same structure for the project (subprojects/reactions/experiments)
Each of the XML files contains a property, "buildNumber", that includes the version and release information for the Mbook Instance generating them.
You can import single experiments by following the instructions described in this chapter.
