Exporting gives you a complete copy of your building model in a single ZIP file. It comes in handy when you want a backup before a big change, need Mapiq to look at your setup, or want to bring the building into another environment. The export runs in the background, so you can keep working while it is prepared. Here's how to do it.
Applies to
Admin roles: Subscription Owner, Subscription Admin, and Building Admin

Behind the scenes
Any building can be exported â Published or not, with or without blocking issues, every building can be exported.
The export covers the building model â The ZIP holds a JSON file with the building's setup and all its images, such as floor plans and meeting room photos. Building services are not included, so export sensors and app links separately from their service pages.
It is always the whole building â Partial exports, such as a single floor, are not available.
Bigger buildings take longer â The more floors, desks, and images a building has, the longer the export takes.
