Image AddedImage Added

Note
Something important that you need to know is that when you export a config item that depends on another, the export will contain also all the dependencies.

Note
Take into consideration that components with resources loaded into elastic, will be exported, but the resource itself will not, so you will need to reupload the resource and go and select your resource in the component again.
