# Sharing Configurations
## Share configuration files
Users can share the configuration files with colleagues or with the ARKANCE support team when submitting a [support ticket](https://agacad.freshdesk.com/support/tickets/new).
To share the configuration files that you are using in your current project, go to **Settings** > **Configuration Files' Location**:
In the dialogue, **copy the file path** that is already selected:
**Paste the file path** inside the Windows Explorer:
Then **copy all the folders** inside the file path:
**Paste the folders** inside a new folder, located in a convenient location on your computer:
If you are sharing the files via email, we recommend compressing the folder using RAR or ZIP format:
Users can also share the files on a cloud platform where other users can easily access, download files and then copy the downloaded configuration folder file path to the Configuration Files' Location.
{% hint style="info" %}
**NOTE:** It's currently not possible to map the configuration files from the cloud.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
**WARNING**: If multiple users map the same file path from a shared **company server**, please keep in mind that if one user modifies the configurations, it may lead to wrong results in other users' framing projects.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="success" %}
**RECOMMENDATION**: We recommend keeping the company's standard configuration folders on a **server** without using the file path. Users can still copy all the configuration folders and paste them inside the new projects folder on **local computers** and map the configurations from there.
{% endhint %}
## Map the received configuration files
After downloading the shared configuration files, choose a convenient and safe file location on your computer where configuration files will be stored.
Then **open** the configurations folder and copy its file path:
After copying the file path, go to **Settings** and choose **Configuration Files' Location**:
**Choose an empty slot** in the dialogue (if you need to add more slots, click the "plus" symbol at the bottom) and hit **Save & Close**:

## 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/metal-framing/configuration-files/sharing-configurations.md?ask=&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.
