Export File Sets

Is there any way to export or save ‘File Sets’ so I can use them in a new website rather than having to create them again from scratch?

The migration tool should help you with that. Look into the documentation tutorials for an explanation.

Thanks mnakalay, as far as i can find out, the migration tool only works on core 9. My site is 8.5.6

This one should work

you may also simply export a zip from the source site fileManager, uncompress and sFTP it to the new site under application/files/incoming and then import them using fileManager of the new site (it’s quite quick)

Thanks for all the info guys.
I installed the migration tool but it does not give the option for exporting file sets (see pic).
I ended up just recreating the whole lot again in the new site.
