    HI Ashutosh,

     

    Thanks for the helpful blog,

     

    can you also tell, if we can choose the directory to export this .tpz file which is created, or does it always go to the default path in the PI Server?

    also, is there any way to export the file to local system, if we do not have access tot he PI Server directories.?

     

    thanks in advance.

      Hello,

      I am not sure if you can change the URL, i guess basis can do this while installing the application.

      And you can import the .tpz files into your local system, i guess you need to have the admin role.

      Regards,
