# Moving between self-hosted OpenATS and OpenATS Cloud

> Export a whole OpenATS workspace and move it between a self-hosted install and OpenATS Cloud.

An admin downloads the whole workspace from **Settings → Data & privacy → Data export → Export organization data**, as one JSON file. That file is what moves an organization between a self-hosted OpenATS and OpenATS Cloud: send it to us and we’ll bring it into Cloud, or load it into your own install.

## Export the workspace

1. Open **Settings → Data & privacy**.
2. Under **Data export**, choose **Export organization data**.

You get one JSON file of the organization. It’s lossless for your recruiting data; a few things don’t travel in it:

- Passwords: everyone signs in again (or uses **Continue with Google**).
- Files such as resumes, which move separately from the JSON.

## Bring it in

To move into OpenATS Cloud, [contact support](https://openats.ai/support?topic=using) and we’ll take it from there. Self-hosting? The open-source edition’s `import-org` command loads the file into your install; see its [migration guide on GitHub](https://github.com/adamperlis/openats).
