Is there a way to export a multiple projects at one time to individual Database and Zip files?
Is there a way to export a multiple projects at one time to individual Database and Zip files? Will it be added in the future? When using database management currently we can export 1 “Project” at a time sending to its own Database & ZIP file for possible use or re-import later if needed.
