# Export/Import

This chapter lists the workflows when importing a selection list or project setup in a Collaboration (BIM360 / **A**utodesk **C**onstruction **C**loud) environment.

When exporting selection lists or project setup, then there is no difference between BIM and Non-BIM projects. Only when importing.

<summary>Importing Selection List or Project Setup</summary>

When using the Export/Import function, the function will check out the Project Setup before it can apply the changes when importing Selection Lists or Project Setup from csv or xlsx files.

Besides importing Selection Lists, the Project Setup will also be checked out when copying Selection Lists between P\&ID and 3D or when updating the P\&ID Pipe Specs Selection List based on the available Plant 3D Pipe Specs.
