How to export several related projects using ExportSourceControlledEntitiesToZipFile service?

I want to move some development to production and found this service, I made some tests and it creates a zip file with 4 folders

However, the development consists on several projects (I am using some thingworx packages for file management, alarms, console framework, etc.)

 

What would be the best practice to export all development?

 

Do I just need to create a single project (Development Project) and include all the projects I want to export, then use the ExportSourceControlledEntitiesToZipFile  on this project?

Hi @EM_9923519

 

It would be helpful to know which version of ThingWorx you're running.  Starting with 8.5, we introduced a service called Solution Central, with the express purpose of migrating projects between environments.  Here is a link to the Solution Central Help Center for more information.

 

If you're running an older version, you'll need to use export/import for migrating your projects.
