Export projects icon is missing on the toolbar menu in Talend Studio 8.0.1

[vldu]

This is how it looks like in Talend Studio 8.0.1:

This was in 7.3.1:

Documentation for 8.0.1 is not accurate, it says that I should press the Exports items icon and then I will come to the Export projects dialog box, which is not true.

This is what the documentation for Talend Studio 8.0.1 says about how to export a project:

It advices you to "open the Export Talend items dialog box", and then it shows the dialog box of Export projects, which either does not exist in version 8.0 or I don't know how to find it. As shown above, in version 7.3.1 it was an icon for Export projects.

Does anybody know how to open Export Talend projects dialog box in Talend Studio 8.0.1 ?

Hello again!

It seems that you helped me, yes! But a couple of important notices...

First, I did not find "Java Navigation" but "Java browsing", where I then could choose "Projects". BUT!! That's not Talend projects, but Java projects I would say... I did not find my project, but rather "My_project_BEANS" and "My_project_ROUTINES". When I expand them then I only see .jar files and other "Java stuff". So then choosing export to archive will not export your entire Talend project.

BUT! If you look at General you can find Project explorer, choose that. Then you will get listed your complete project, which you can export.

I have not tried it yet, but I think it would be the solution.

Generally, it would probably work also to just go to File > Export... > General > Archive file and then you can see your projects, among other type of artifacts. That's confusing and I was not sure that it was the same as when clicking on the "Export projects" button, which now is missing.

Because, when you click on "Export projects" icon (which now is missing in 8.0.1), notice that you will see this:

That was the confirmation what you are exporting. Notice that you will not see the word "projects" when doing as I described above.

Thank your for the correction ! As I use Talend in another language I tried to translate it

I just tried what you described and I achieved the same as before, in my case I can see my project (not the _BEANS or the _ROUTINES) in both "Java Browsing" and "Project Explorer" window. I guess it depend of the version of the studio ?

It's still bad that there isn't a simple button to achieve that the way it was done before

I agree, the button "Export projects" should be back on the toolbar menu.

Hello All,

Thanks for your information and I have raised this issue to our DOCT team for updating.
https://help.qlik.com/talend/en-US/studio-user-guide/8.0-R2024-11/exporting-project?ver=18

Actually, export all item is fine to export a project, and might be better as it will check the items as well.

If you still need to get the full content of project and export it, it's still possible.
File > Export > General > Archive or File System

Really thanks for letting us know it.

Best regards

Sabrina
