Import and export a query

Learn how to share queries with team members.

When you want to use a query that a member of your project team has created or share one of your queries, it is often easier to modify an existing query to suit your needs than to create the query from scratch. You can export and import queries from your workspace.

To export the NotClosedorResolved query:
  1. In your workspace, navigate to the NotClosedorResolved query in the Personal Queries folder.
  2. Right-click the query and select Export Query.
  3. In the File name field of the Export Query window, change the name of the query by appending 1 to the name (NotClosedorResolved1).
  4. To save the renamed query, click Save .

You can now send the query through e-mail.

To import the renamed query:
  1. Right-click the Personal Queries folder in your workspace and select Import.
  2. In the Import Query window, select the NotClosedorResolved1.qry file and click Open.
