having trouble importing a bot. it is a dumb quest...
# 🤝help
r
These files were zipped. So I unzipped it and saved it to my desktop. Now, Im trying to import those files but I cant upload either of those files. Can someone tell me what im doing wrong? Do i need to upload one of it or both of it? Ive seen botpress youtube video on import/export but it only explained about exporting bots. cheers in advance!

no dumb questions here!
what kind of bot are you trying to import?
afaik the import/export feature is for importing botpress bots - in other words, .bpz files
r
cheers robert. im tryna import a botpress bot... one of the youtubers shared a template and im learning it now as I got my first client today
if you dont mind, ill share the file here?
b
sure
r
it was zipped, and i unzipped them and now i have these two files below... which couldnt be uploaded
hmm but thee files were json haha im confused! hahah
b
it's because these are .json files - for example here you can see:
I uploaded a .bpz file there
r
alright ill give it a try now to test
