+
+## Introduction
+
+You can manage and share station and workspace data across various workspaces and environments by exporting and importing the configuration of a single station, or of multiple stations at the same time. If performed by the workspace admin, the import includes applications and devices associated with the station. In this way, you can replicate or migrate of station setups, supporting efficient and consistent data handling.

+
+    The **Dowload Stations** dialog opens. You can either download all the stations created for the workspace, or select individual stations from the list.
+
+4. Click **Download**.
+
+    The export is saved to your computer in JSON format.
+
+5. Go to the workspace where you want to import the stations.
+
+    This can be the workspace from which you exported the stations, or a different one.
+
+6. On the **Stations** page, click the three-dot menu in the top right corner of the screen, and then click **Import Stations**.
+
+After the import finishes, your target workspace has the same apps and devices as the source workspace.
+
+## Importing and Exporting a Single Station
+
+To transfer the contents of a single station, perform the following steps:
+
+1. On the **Stations** page, click the three-dot menu by the station which you want to copy, and then click **Copy Station to Clipboard**.
+
+    {{< figure src="/attachments/workstation/wks-import2.png" class="no-border" >}}
+
+    Alternatively, you can click **Download Station File** to download the configuration to your computer in JSON format for later use.
+
+2. Click **Create Station**, and then select **Create station from clipboard**.
+3. Paste the configuration into the **Paste Station Configuration** field.
+
+    {{< figure src="/attachments/workstation/wks-import3.png" class="no-border" >}}

+6. Click **Create Station**.
