# Import/Export

Import / Export allows you to back up your project(s) on the inSCADA platform and restore them back to the inSCADA platform.

As shown in Figure 1, you can make the selection of the project you want to export or import in the window that opens. 

{% hint style="info" %}
inSCADA uses xlsx as the Import/Export file format. Thus, you will have the opportunity to quickly edit your project via excel.
