Export/ Import a template

On the Gaia Configuration page (Jira Administration → Manage apps → Gaia Configuration), you're able to export and import the template as a package.

You can either save exported file as a backup in your version control system (VCS) or put it anywhere else. You can also send it to another Gaia for Jira user.
