When I export DataCatalog's meta data, I see the tags and catagories I entered, but not their associations to databases, views, etc...

Hi, I was able to successfully export the [Tags](https://community.denodo.com/docs/html/browse/8.0/en/vdp/data_catalog/browse/tags_browse/tags_browse) and [Categories](https://community.denodo.com/docs/html/browse/8.0/en/vdp/data_catalog/browse/categories_browse/categories_browse) along with the associated elements by choosing the “**Administration**”> “**Import/Export**” option of the Data Catalog. After importing the zip file, if the associated elements are not reflected, I would check for the following: * Verify whether the same element which is assigned to the Category or Tag is present in both the source and target environment. * Check whether the user performing the export is a global administrator or a user account granted with the IMPORT / EXPORT privilege. You can take a look at the [Import and Export Data Catalog Metadata](https://community.denodo.com/docs/html/browse/8.0/en/vdp/data_catalog/administration/import_export/import_export) section of the Data Catalog Guide for more information. Hope this helps!

Hi, Each element in the [Data Catalog](https://community.denodo.com/docs/html/browse/8.0/en/vdp/data_catalog/administration/import_export/import_export) metadata is identified by an unique ID which is auto-generated. The tags associated to the databases can be obtained by using different JSON files in the Data Catalog export: * The **viewtag.json** file describes the relationship between the view and its associated tags. * The **tag.json** contains the tag names and its corresponding ids. * Similarly the **localviews.json** contains the view name and its corresponding view id, databaseName and databaseId. Hope this helps!
