Exporting library content by using the command line

Instead of using the Library Administration tool in Spotfire Analyst, you can export content from the library by using the command line.

Prerequisites

You must have administrative credentials for Spotfire Server.

For general information about library administration, download the Spotfire User's Guide

Procedure

  1. Open a command line as an administrator and go to the server installation dir/tomcat/bin directory.
  2. On the command line, enter the import-library-content command, specifying the options needed to import the ZIP file.
    Example:
    config export-library-content --tool-password=password --file-path=C:/YearEndAnalyses --user=jdoe --item-type=analysis_files --library-path=/Finals/Europe
    For more information, see export-library-content.

Result

The progress of the export is displayed on the command line.

The exported folder and its contents are saved as a ZIP file. The exported items are not removed from the library.
