Sharing Templates Between Cloud Accounts

Updated Today · 4 min read

Foto Master Cloud makes it easy to share workflows, layouts, and video templates with other booth owners, partners, or the Foto Master support team. This is especially useful when:

  • You want another booth owner to run a white-labeled event for you.
  • You want to share a workflow, layout, or video template with a partner who uses a different Cloud account.
  • You need to send your setup to the Foto Master support team for review or troubleshooting.

Templates are shared using JSON files or copied JSON text. Once imported, the receiving account can load the template and continue editing or using it.

Importing and Exporting Workflow Templates

Export a Workflow

  1. Open the Workflow Builder.
  2. Click the Settings icon in the top toolbar.
  3. Select JSON Options from the menu.
  4. In the dialog, make sure the Export tab is selected.
  5. Keep using minimal format checked.

The minimal format is recommended because it removes unnecessary editor data and creates a smaller file. Only uncheck this option if you need to export the full workflow state, including editor-only data such as viewport position.

Choose one of the export options:

Copy
Copies the JSON to your clipboard so you can paste it into a chat, email, or support ticket.

Download
Downloads the workflow as a JSON file, usually named workflow-minimal.json. If the minimal format is disabled, the file may be named workflow.json.

Import a Workflow

  1. Open the Workflow Builder.
  2. Click Settings.
  3. Select JSON Options.
  4. Switch to the Import tab.
  5. Load the workflow using one of the available options:

Upload a .json file from your computer.

Drag and drop a .json file into the upload area.

Paste the JSON text directly into the import field.

  1. Click Import.

The current workflow on the canvas will be replaced with the imported workflow.

Tip: Both minimal and full export formats can be re-imported; the importer detects which format it received automatically. If the JSON is malformed, an error appears below the text field, and nothing is changed on the canvas. 

Warning: Importing replaces the workflow currently open in the editor. Export your current work first if you want to keep it.

Importing and Exporting Layout Templates

Export a Layout

  1. Open the Layout Builder.
  2. Click the Settings icon in the top toolbar.
  3. Click JSON Options in the settings panel.
  4. Make sure the Export tab is selected.
  5. Choose one of the export options:

Copy to Clipboard
Copies the layout JSON so you can paste it into a chat, email, or support ticket.

Download
Downloads the layout as layout.json.

Import a Layout

  1. Open the Layout Builder.
  2. Click Settings.
  3. Click JSON Options.
  4. Switch to the Import tab.
  5. Paste the layout JSON into the text field.
  6. Click Load.

The current layout on the canvas will be replaced with the imported layout.

Tip: The Layout Builder only accepts pasted JSON, there is no file picker. If you have a .json file, open it in any text editor (or Notepad), select all, copy, and paste it into the Import tab.

Warning: Importing replaces the workflow currently open in the editor. Export your current work first if you want to keep it.

Export a Video Template

  2. Click the Settings icon in the top toolbar.
  3. Select JSON Options from the menu.
  4. Make sure the Export tab is selected.
  5. Choose one of the export options:

Copy
Copies the JSON to your clipboard so you can paste it into a chat, email, or support ticket.

Download
Downloads the template as a .json file. The file name is based on your current template name, using lowercase letters and hyphens instead of spaces.
Example: my-template.json

Import a Video Template

  1. Open the Video Template Builder.
  2. Click Settings.
  3. Select JSON Options.
  4. Switch to the Import tab.

Paste the JSON text directly into the import field.

  1. Click Import.

The current video template will be replaced with the imported template.

Warning: Importing a video template replaces the template currently open in the editor. Export your current template first if you want to keep a backup.
