Hi, Is it possible to export analysis settings configuration created through the impromptu Analysis selector to another database / gateway? (8.1.43 and 3.81.10 SP6) ---

Hi @Daniel_Calderon , You should be able to export and import via the gateway Import/Export tool: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/c/4/c402798c3b6cb38a4395d2094a6a7bd568a4e9b9.png) Uncheck all and check Analysis settings. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/3/0/30a708e82c4239be0342088e8dfe84b99e7bb01b.png)A Import the .changelog file to the next environment using the File Import tab. ---

Thank you @jesse.records . Did not know that existed. I did it, but it sort of stayed "Building Export..." forever. Does it usually take a long time? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/9/f/9f73eab2f4b8a0851d560f2c83b90ba640d2bddd.png) ---

Nevermind, it finally exported. Thanks a lot! ---

@jesse.records good morning, I am having issues importing an exported file with only MES Analysis settings into another gateway where the equipment and enterprise are different. I am getting ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/c/3/c346e6cf466856b57d735718c771a4e18cde4fe6.png) Is the import function restricted to restore settings on the same MES configuration as the source? Thanks! ---

I managed to export all my Analysis settings to an XML file using ```python filter = system.mes.object.filter.createFilter() filter.setMESObjectTypeName('AnalysisSettings') xml = system.mes.exportMESObjects(filter) ``` but then I can't see a way to import them using scripts. Any idea? thanks ---

I think you found another way but I just ran through this example on my system: On the export system: ```python filter = system.mes.object.filter.createFilter() filter.setMESObjectTypeName('AnalysisSettings') xml =system.mes.exportMESObjects(filter) filename = system.file.saveFile('analysisexport', 'xml', '') system.file.writeFile(filename, xml) ``` On the import system: ```python filename = 'analysisexport.xml' xml = system.file.readFileAsString('C:\\my\\file\\path\\'+filename) objects = system.mes.importMESObjects(xml) system.mes.saveMESObjects(objects) ``` ---

SOLVED. Thanks Jesse, I had written gateway scripts to dump the analysis configurations to a JSON file and then to read the file and programmatically create and save them in the destination server. This XML method also works. Best regards.
