What is the primary purpose of Orion Export/Import in NPM?

• A. Move settings, dashboards, and reports between environments
• B. Create new dashboards from templates
• C. Monitor traffic flows
• D. Schedule automated backups

Answer: (A)

Export/Import in Orion is about moving your monitoring configuration between Orion installations. It captures and transfers the settings that define how your environment looks and behaves—like dashboards and reports—so you can reproduce the same setup in another environment (development, test, production) without rebuilding everything manually. This makes migrations and environment replication efficient and reduces the risk of inconsistencies. It isn’t used for live traffic monitoring, automatic backups, or creating dashboards from templates; it simply moves existing configurations from one place to another.
