When you export all assets, the assets are exported to a zipped file that is named after the site name—for example, sitename\-Assets.zip.

Export your assets from the Overview tab by clicking **![site actions menu](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-extend_click-264-0-0-production-enus/5f7d9219-b7b1-4552-8891-f1aba9b289fc/extend_click/images/siteforce_actions.png)** | **Export Site Assets**.

To export a single asset, hover over the asset and select **Download** from the Actions menu.

![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-extend_click-264-0-0-production-enus/5f7d9219-b7b1-4552-8891-f1aba9b289fc/images/icon_note.png)

Note There is a file size limitation when using the Metadata API to deploy a site from sandbox to production. The assets in the .site file can't be larger than 40 MB. The site gets created, but the assets show in the new site as broken. To fix the assets, export the assets from the sandbox environment separately and then import them into your new site.

You can import assets and files individually, or use a zipped file. When importing entire websites or large numbers of assets, it’s easier to create a zipped file of the content with the desired folder structure. When importing the zipped file for a website, Site.com recreates your website and places everything in the same folder structure.")
