## Export Deck currently supports exporting all boards a user owns in a single JSON file. The format is based on the database schema that deck uses. It can be used to re-import boards on the same or other instances. The export currently has some kown limitations in terms of specific data not included: - Activity information - File attachments to deck cards - Comments - ``` occ deck:export > my-file.json ``` ## Import boards Importing can be done using the API or the `occ` `deck:import` command. It is possible to import from the following sources: ### Deck JSON A json file that has been obtained from the above described `occ deck:export [userid]` command can be imported. ``` occ deck:import my-file.json ``` In case you are importing from a different instance you may use an additional config file to provide custom user id mapping in case users have different identifiers. ``` { "owner": "admin", "uidRelation": { "johndoe": "test-user-1" } } ``` #### Trello JSON Limitations: * Comments with more than 1000 characters are placed as attached files to the card. Steps: * Create the data file * Access Trello * go to the board you want to export * Follow the steps in [Trello documentation](https://help.trello.com/article/747-exporting-data-from-trello-1) and export as JSON * Create the configuration file * Execute the import informing the import file path, data file and source as `Trello JSON` Create the configuration file respecting the [JSON Schema](https://github.com/nextcloud/deck/blob/main/lib/Service/Importer/fixtures/config-trelloJson-schema.json) for import `Trello JSON` Example configuration file: ```json { "owner": "admin", "color": "0800fd", "uidRelation": { "johndoe": "johndoe" } } ``` **Limitations**: Importing from a JSON file imports up to 1000 actions. To find out how many actions the board to be imported has, identify how many actions the JSON has. #### Trello API Import using API is recommended for boards with more than 1000 actions. Trello makes it possible to attach links to a card. Deck does not have this feature. Attachments and attachment links are added in a markdown table at the end of the description for every imported card that has attachments in Trello. * Get the API Key and API Token [here](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/trello/guides/rest-api/api-introduction/#authentication-and-authorization) * Get the ID of the board you want to import by making a request to: https://api.trello.com/1/members/me/boards?key={yourKey}&token={yourToken}&fields=id,name This ID you will use in the configuration file in the `board` property * Create the configuration file Create the configuration file respecting the [JSON Schema](https://github.com/nextcloud/deck/blob/main/lib/Service/Importer/fixtures/config-trelloApi-schema.json) for import `Trello JSON` Example configuration file: ```json { "owner": "admin", "color": "0800fd", "api": { "key": "0cc175b9c0f1b6a831c399e269772661", "token": "92eb5ffee6ae2fec3ad71c777531578f4a8a08f09d37b73795649038408b5f33" }, "board": "8277e0910d750195b4487976", "uidRelation": { "johndoe": "johndoe" } } ```
