Importing from JSON

Importing from JSON

Overview

JSON import lets you create a calculator by pasting a previously exported configuration. This is useful for backing up your work, sharing calculator setups between stores, or migrating configurations. You can import JSON from Appify CPO → Calculators (to create a new calculator) or from within an existing calculator's Versions panel (to replace its configuration).

Steps

Importing as a new calculator

  1. Go to Appify CPO → Calculators.
  2. Click New and select Create from JSON.
  3. Paste your calculator JSON configuration into the text area.
  4. Click Create calculator.
  5. A new calculator is created with the imported settings. Open it to review and adjust as needed.

Importing into an existing calculator

  1. Open the calculator you want to update.
  2. Go to the Versions panel.
  3. Select the JSON tab.
  4. Paste the new JSON configuration.
  5. Click Apply. The calculator's settings are replaced with the imported configuration.

  • Store migration — Export all calculator configurations from your development store and import them into your production store using New → Create from JSON.
  • Team collaboration — Share a calculator JSON file with a colleague so they can import it into their own store for testing.
