# Exporting and importing workflows
|
||
|
||
In this chapter, you will learn how to export and import workflows.
|
||
|
||
## Exporting and importing workflows
|
||
|
||
You can save n8n workflows locally as JSON files. This is useful if you want to share your workflow with someone else or import a workflow from someone else.

|
||
You can export and import workflows in three ways:
|
||
|
||
* From the **Editor UI** menu:
|
||
* Export: From the top navigation bar, select the three dots in the upper right, then select **Download**. This will download your current workflow as a JSON file on your computer.
|
||
* Import: From the top navigation bar, select the three dots in the upper right, then select **Import from URL** (to import a published workflow) or **Import from File** (to import a workflow as a JSON file).
|
||
* From the **Editor UI** canvas:
|
||
* Export: Select all the nodes on the canvas and use ++ctrl+c++ to copy the workflow JSON. You can paste this into a file or share it directly with other people.
|
||
* Import: You can paste a copied workflow JSON directly into the canvas with ++ctrl+v++.
|
||
* From the command line:
|
||
* Export: See the [full list of commands ](/hosting/cli-commands.md) for exporting workflows or credentials.
|
||
* Import: See the [full list of commands ](/hosting/cli-commands.md#import-workflows-and-credentials) for importing workflows or credentials.
