Description

As of FileWave version 15.4, it is now possible to export and import Inventory Query definitions.  This makes sharing them easier than ever.

Also export and share any included Custom Fields utilised in an exported query.

Importing & Exporting Custom Fields

Information

Prior to 15.4, sharing Inventory Queries relied upon a FileWave API command to grab the definition from one FileWave Server and then subsequently import that definition into another FileWave instance also using API.  However, exporting and importing is now available via the right click contextual menu within the FileWave Central Admin Console.
