At this point, you will know how to upload files in your Alfresco repository, and also how to download your content items from the repository.
However, consider a few business scenarios and requirements; you might face these frequently in your organization environment:
Export all the items of a particular folder in an archive, and create a backup.
Export all items of a folder into an archive, and import the same into another alfresco repository—in other words, you want to transfer content items from one alfresco installation into another, provided the two systems are compatible.
Upload a large number of files in a particular folder in alfresco.
Upload an existing ZIP archive in a folder and automatically extract all the items in that folder.
Though there are several solutions for these scenarios, we can implement these using Alfresco's Import/Export features easily.
