Manage XaaS Content with Import and Export
You can use the content management service to import and export everything as a service (XaaS)
content.
XaaS is integrated with the API content management service, and all commands that work with other
content types also work with XaaS content. Though the XaaS functionality is being deprecated in the
vRealize Automation 7.0 release, it is still available for users to migrate XaaS content into
vRealize Automation 7.0.
