Bundles and Workflow Config Portability

Move curated item sets and workflow definitions between environments as JSON configs.
Updated 5 June 2026·Task guide

Outcome

You can package a repeatable release scope as a bundle, export workflow or bundle configuration as JSON, and import it on another site without rebuilding everything manually.

Risk level

Medium. Portable configs can carry wrong scope. Reconnect remotes/groups per environment.

Before you start

  • The source workflow or bundle has clear IDs and labels.
  • Remote IDs and group IDs may differ on the target and should be reselected after import.
  • The JSON config is reviewed before importing.

Steps

  1. Create a curated bundle
    Group templates, components, settings, media, fields, or other integration items that ship together.
  2. Use bundles as workflow shortcuts
    In workflow steps, use the optional bundle picker only when that curated scope is intended.
  3. Export the config
    Use Export Config from bundle/workflow editors or list pages.
  4. Import on the target site
    Validate the job_type field and create/update the corresponding bundle or workflow.
  5. Reconnect environment-specific targets
    Reselect remotes, groups, and storage settings that differ on the target environment.
