Import from Repository

{% embed url="https://youtu.be/B4gR4XligTo" %}

​If you already have an Appsmith App in a Git repository, you can import it to a new workspace or a different Appsmith account. Follow the steps given below:

  • On the Appsmith workspace home, click on desired workspace's Menu button and select Import.
  • Choose the Import from a Git repo option on the import application pop-up. You'll be navigated to an Import from the Git Repository screen.
  • Add your Repository’s SSH URL and click on Generate key.

  • Add the Deploy key to your repository.​
  • Go back to the Git connection window and configure the user settings and click on Import.
  • Once the import is complete, you’ll see a data source configuration modal where you can configure the data sources used by the imported Application. We do not export any configuration values used for connecting a data source. So either you have to configure it in the data source configuration modal, or you can skip this and choose to configure it later.

{% hint style="info" %} If the imported workspace already has a data source with the same name but a different type, the import will fail due to name conflicts. For example, suppose a git-connected application has a MongoDB data source - "movies." You are importing it to a workspace that has a Postgres data source also named "movies". In such a case, the import will fail. {% endhint %}
