# Migration

> How to import and export your full CData Arc application data and settings.

The **Migration** portion of the **Advanced** page enables you to perform a full {"import or export"} of your application, including all of the global application data and settings.

Use the **Export** button to export global application data. Doing so exports your data in an ARC file (`.arc` extension). This file type stores global application data such as multiple workspaces and settings as well as users, roles, reports, and other global data.

In a similar way, you can import application data by using the **Import** button to import an ARC file.

For details about how to use the **Migration** settings to import or export your application, see [Importing and Exporting](../importing-exporting-flows).
