### 4.6.1. Exporting a Workspace

You can use the Export Workspace feature in EKM to easily export an entire workspace to another EKM server. When a workspace is exported, an exact copy is made that includes users/groups, configuration, data, controls, and so on. You can then import the workspace into another EKM server.

Note: Workspace exports can be performed by any member of the `admin` group.

To export a workspace:

1. Go to the Administration section, then select More > Export Workspace. The Export Workspace dialog box appears:

2. Specify a folder to be created for the exported workspace on the destination server. To do this, enter an absolute path to the folder on the server’s file system. For example, if you enter `C:\ekm\v182\ekm-server\WorkspaceExport`, a folder named WorkspaceExport will be created on the server, and the workspace will be exported to that folder. Note that you cannot export to an existing folder.

3. Click OK. The workspace is exported to the specified folder.
