What can be shared?
You can export and share the following items from Stream Deck between macOS and Windows:
- Keys
- Dials
- Dial Stacks
- Folders
- Multi Actions
- Action Triggers
- Action Wheel
Note 1: If a plugin is missing for an action you just installed, a question mark (?) icon will appear on that action. You can download the required plugin from Elgato Marketplace, and the action will work normally.
Note 2: Linked files, like MP3s or images, won’t be included and must be relinked to work properly.
How to Export an Action
There are two ways to export an action.
1) Drag and drop the action from Stream Deck to your desktop.
2) Right-click the action and select Export Action.
Note: Key actions cannot be imported onto Dials, and Dial actions cannot be imported onto Keys.
How to Import an Action
