Importing an application component

An application component contains one or more reports and their supporting components (for example variables and styles).

Application components have the .biapplication file extension.

To import an application component:

  1. Right-click the root of the report catalog and select Export/Import > Import Application Component.
  2. Browse to the application component and click Open.
  3. If there is existing content, a message warns that any changes you have made to the existing content since it was imported will be overwritten. Click Yes to continue.
  4. Click OK when prompted that the import was successful.
