4. Navigate back to the server and create a snapshot

5. Export the snapshot to your bucket

6. In the detailed view of your bucket, you will see the exported snapshot.

This may take a few minutes.

7. Navigate to the Marketplace

8. Create a Marketplace Template

Name your app, assign it to a category and select the bucket with the snapshot you created earlier.

9. Go to self created templates

Now that we have created a Marketplace app, we want to assign it to a dedicated account. For this we use the import function via hash.

10. Click on your created template

Further up you will see the hash value of your template. Click on it and it will be saved to the clipboard.

11. Switch to another project and import your template in the Marketplace

12. Launch your Marketplace app and connect to it

Did everything work? Great! Then you have successfully created a Marketplace template and imported it into another project.
