Exporting a Job

From the Integration perspective in Talend Studio, you can export one or more Jobs in order to import them into the MDM perspective.

The export Job feature allows you to deploy and execute the Job on the MDM server. Exporting a Job adds to an archive all the files required to execute the Job, including the .bat and .sh files along with the possible context-parameter files or relative files.

Before you begin

You have already connected to the MDM server from Talend Studio. At least one data integration Job is created in the Integration perspective.
