Exporting an Application Profile

An application profile can be exported from the application. After an application is configured with a profile, it becomes part of the application archive.

Do the following to export an application profile as a substvar and properties file:

  1. Click the project.application, expand Package Unit folder and double-click Properties to open the Properties page.
  2. In the Properties view, select the profile, and click the Export Profile button. The Export Profile wizard opens.
  3. Select the properties to be exported and use the Browse button to browse to a location where you want to download the profile file as a substvar or properties file.
    1. To export as substvar file, select the checkbox Export as substvar file and browse the location to export the substvar file.

      A <ProfileName>.substvar file is created in the location specified. You can now import this profile file into another application.

  4. Click Finish.
