Export WPM recordings

It may not always be possible to establish a connection between the SolarWinds Platform server and remote systems that host Web Transaction Recorders. If that is the case, you can export recordings to a local drive, and then transfer them to their destination using e-mail, FTP, or some other means.

To export a recording from the Web Transaction Recorder:

1. Click Save > Save locally.
   
   
2. When prompted, enter a password for the recording.
3. Transfer the file, as necessary.
   

To export a recording from the Deprecated WPM Recorder:

1. Click File > Export.
2. Enter the file name for the recording, and then click Save.
3. Transfer the file, as necessary.

To export a recording from the SolarWinds Platform Web Console.

1. Click Settings> All Settings > WPM Settings > Manage Recordings.
2. On the Manage Recordings page, switch to the Recordings tab, if necessary.
3. Select the check box next to the recording and then click Export.
   
4. For recordings created in the Web Transaction Recorder, a password is required.
   For recordings created in the Deprecated WPM Recorder, adding a password is optional.
   1. Select "Yes, password protect this recording."
   2. Enter the password in the Password and Confirm Password fields.
5. Click Export to download the file to the local drive.
