Importing and exporting packages
The efficient import and export capabilities of Sitecore Content Hub enables seamless transfer of content and data packages between environments, enhancing collaboration and simplifying your content management workflows. This section deals with the following topics:
-
Contents of export packages: insights into the structure and components of export packages.
-
Export a package: how to create export packages.
-
Import a package: how to create import packages.
-
Import behavior: how Content Hub handles the import process.
Making changes to an exported package might cause issues when importing that package. If you encounter a problem after importing a modified package, we recommend you export the package again and then re-import it without any modifications.
You can export or import the following:
Instance version
Before importing a Sitecore Content Hub package, check that the versions of both the target and the destination product instance match exactly. If they don’t, the import operation will fail.
To check your product instance version, add /api/status to its URL. In the response, the product_version appears at the top and should match the m_version in your export package’s meta file.
This is an example response:
{
"product_version": "f1eb15eaa2a4b5ece02239fa7b6af29c156ad1b6",
"build_date": "2025-03-24T12:04:54+00:00",
"rollout_date": "2025-03-24T12:16:29.9880114+00:00"
...
}
