Export / Import
every setting as one JSON file.

Export writes every setting into one JSON file, for a backup of your configuration or to copy it to a second installation. Import reads such a file back and shows exactly what would change before anything is applied. Keys are never in the file. Owner only.

/admin#/transferJSONSecrets never exported

01Export

  1. Open Export / Import and press Download JSON.
  2. Keep the file private. It holds every setting except secrets, in clear (your postal address, addresses of servers).

02The file format

A shortened example. Each key is the setting's key shown on the section pages of these docs:

{
  "format": "mikodes-admin-export/1",
  "product": "leadlantern",
  "exportedAt": "2026-11-11T09:30:00.000Z",
  "values": {
    "brand.name": "Northside Studio",
    "brand.accent": "#0B7F59",
    "brand.supportEmail": "hello@northside-studio.example",
    "leadlantern.publicUrl": "https://leads.northside-studio.example",
    "leadlantern.profile": "website",
    "leadlantern.senderName": "Anna from Northside Studio",
    "leadlantern.postalAddress": "Northside Studio Ltd\n12 Example Street\nLeeds LS1 1AA",
    "places.provider": "osm",
    "places.maxResults": 60,
    "ai.provider": "openai",
    "email.from": "Anna <anna@northside-studio.example>",
    "outreach.dailyLimit": 30,
    "outreach.gapMinutes": 3,
    "outreach.perLeadDays": 7,
    "outreach.maxPerLead": 2,
    "family.websiteBuilderUrl": ""
  }
}

The four keys under Integrations and the webhook signing secret are never written to the file. Set them again by hand on a new installation.

03Import

  1. Save or discard any unsaved edits in the console first.
  2. Press Choose file under Import and pick an export file.
  3. Read the preview. It lists every change (before and after), keys it does not know, keys locked by .env (skipped) and any value that would be refused.
  4. Apply. The change is written to the audit log; History can roll it back (History).

Leads, messages and the do-not-contact list are not part of this file: they are in the database (Backups).
