# Export/Import MEP Openings

Cut Opening provides coordination capabilities between multiple engineers working on the same project. With Cut Opening, users can export already created openings and share those with other project participants for coordination.

To export already created openings, it is necessary to run **Revise Openings** in the Opening management table and choose **Export**.

{% hint style="info" %}
Only the information actively visible in the table will be exported for sharing/coordination.
{% endhint %}

After the Export, users must save the opening .XML file. This file can be used by any other Cut Opening user to insert the exact openings in their project via **Import Openings**..&#x20;

If Openings are already present in the importers' model, Cut Opening will compare the currently inserted openings with the newly imported ones and will show the feedback in the Opening Table.

Alternatively, users of the **full Cut Opening version** can cooperate with the users of the **Cut Opening Free version**. This cooperation can be done only in one direction, as Cut Opening Free users cannot access the **Revise Openings** functionality and can not export already created openings.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.besmart.software/3d-modeling-and-design/cut-opening/export-import-mep-openings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
