Canvas enables you to export the configured reports in JSON and SQL formats. You can use this feature to promote reports configuration from one environment to another, e.g. development to testing servers. Once you export the reports configuration in JSON format from source environment (e.g. development), you can then inject using the Import feature in Canvas Studio on the target environment (e.g. testing). If you have exported in SQL format from the source environment, you must execute the exported SQLs on the DB in the target environment.
