JSON Backup & Restore

Open the JSON Modal

Use the top-bar Save button to open the JSON modal for the current workspace.

The modal changes by mode:

  • 2D board editing: Import/Export Board
  • 2D animation: Import/Export Animations
  • 3D editing: Import/Export 3D Scene
  • 3D animation: Import/Export 3D Animations

What Each Backup Contains

  • Board JSON stores the current board and related assets.
  • Animation JSON stores the current board's animation timeline data.
  • 3D scene JSON can include entities, camera, view preset, zoom, and embedded assets.
  • 3D animation JSON backs up the timeline plus the related 3D scene settings.

Import Behavior

Current import behavior is mode-specific.

  • Board import restores board data and assets into the current board slot.
  • Board import does not restore the 2D animation timeline.
  • 3D scene import can restore camera and view settings immediately.
  • 3D animation import restores the animation-mode JSON package for that workspace.

When to Use JSON

  • before major edits
  • before switching browsers or machines
  • when local browser storage is not enough backup on its own

If the JSON buttons show a Pro badge, that backup flow is currently plan-gated in the editor UI.
