Import a board or wireframe file
Bring a .board or .wire file into a space, for example a board made in the MockFlow desktop app or a Classic WireframePro project file.
Work does not always start in the cloud. A board made offline in the MockFlow desktop app, a board exported as a file, or a Classic WireframePro project saved as a file can all be imported into a space, where your team can open it like any other board.
Before you start
The file type: a .board file (a MockFlow board, for example from the desktop app or exported from a board) or a .wire file (a Classic WireframePro project).
The file size: up to 400 MB.
The space: you need to be the owner, an admin or an editor of the space you import into.
The plan: importing is available on the Plus and Max plans.
Import a file into a space
In the workspace sidebar, point to the space and click its settings button.
Choose Import project file.
Choose the .board or .wire file on your computer and open it.
The file appears in the space with Importing beside it while it uploads. When it finishes, the board takes its place at the top of the space, named after the file.
A .board file becomes a MockFlow board. A .wire file becomes a Classic WireframePro project in the same space.
If the file was saved with a password, MockFlow asks for it: enter the file's password to finish the import.
If something goes wrong
What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
Only .wire or .board files can be imported here. | Choose a .board or .wire file. Other files, such as images or PDFs, are added on a board instead. |
File size cannot exceed 400 MB | Reduce the file, for example by removing large images from it, and import it again. |
If the file is encrypted, enter its password to import it | The file is password protected. Enter the password it was saved with. |
Upgrade to import | Your plan does not include importing. Importing is available on Plus and Max. |
Import project file is not in the menu | You are a reviewer in this space. Ask an admin for the editor role, or import into a space of your own. |
See MockFlow pricing for what each plan includes.
