Hi @acpfn , it is currently not possible to export and import global section templates in Datagerry but this feature is already added to our backlog and will be implemented in a later release. There only way would be to do it manually and export it from the database and import it in the new database. The global section templates are saved in the collection **framework.sectionTemplates**. You also need to consider the public\_id of the template and the public\_id counter for the templates which is stored in the collection **datastorage.counter** (you should take the current value from there for your public\_id and increment the counter).
