Exporting and importing custom chart definitions

We can export and import custom chart definitions in the MobileFirst Analytics Console. If you are moving from a test environment to a production deployment, we can save time by exporting your custom chart definitions instead of re-creating your custom charts on your new cluster.

Before you begin

Ensure that you have at least one custom chart in the MobileFirst Analytics Console.

To duplicate your custom charts, follow these steps.

Procedure

1. Click the Custom Charts tab in the Dashboard section in the MobileFirst Analytics Console.
2. Click Export Charts to download a JSON file with your chart definition.
3. Choose a location to save the JSON file.
4. Click Import Charts to import your JSON file. If you import a custom chart definition that exists, you end up with duplicate definitions, which also means that the MobileFirst Analytics Console shows duplicate custom charts.
