Import & Export
Epistola provides bulk import and export of template data for migration, backup, and cross-instance transfer.
Export
Export produces a JSON file containing all templates in the tenant, including:
- Template definitions and settings
- Variants and their attributes
- Deployment configurations
The export is triggered from the admin data management page with a single download button.
Import
Import reads a JSON file and processes each template, reporting results per item:
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Processed | Total number of templates in the file |
| Created | Templates that were newly created |
| Updated | Templates that existed and were updated |
| Unchanged | Templates that matched the existing state |
| Failed | Templates that could not be imported (with error details) |

The admin data management page provides:
- Download button — Export all templates as a JSON file
- File upload form — Select a JSON file to import
- Results summary — After import, a summary table shows processed/created/updated/unchanged/failed counts per template
