Import/Export Skills

This feature enables the Admin to Import/Export Skills based on the bot language once the bot is created. Also, it allows auto import out of the box ITSM Skills. You can export/import multiple skills from the skills builder. You can re-use the webservices during import (especially ticket creation skills) rather than cluttering them with duplicate webservices.

Export skill functionality helps admins to move skills from one environment to other. Export functionality exports the attributes, actions, web services operations and web service connectors (keys only, no values) related to the selected skills.

Note

While exporting a custom skill, connectors associated with the skill will not be exported. Hence, you must create the connector before you import the specific custom skill into the Luma environment.
While importing a skill, the Base URL specified for Web Services and the Authorization Type will not be imported.

The Import functionality creates the new skill in the target if the target environment is not having the skill with same name of the imported skill.

Note

Select the .zip file that contains your Luma Skills, Attributes and Web Service to import.
