How to Transfer a Local Item to Your Divi Cloud

Divi Cloud is the latest feature included with your membership and acts like Dropbox, but for your Divi website. Divi Cloud allows you to save, organize, and access all of your Divi Builder Elements – like page layouts, sections, rows, and modules. Once your Divi Builder Elements are stored in the cloud, you’ll be able to access, import, and edit them on any Divi website you’re working on that is authenticated with your API key.

Today we’re going to look at how to transfer a local item to your Divi Cloud. Chances are, you have a Divi Library full of your favorite sections, rows, modules, and page layouts. The first step to utilizing your Divi Cloud is to transfer those locally saved items to your Divi Cloud. In this post, we’ll show you how.

Before we continue, let’s define local vs cloud.

Local vs Cloud

Saving Divi Builder Elements locally means you’re saving that element to the website you’re working on. It lives only on that website and is only accessible via that website. If you have Divi Builder Elements already saved to your Divi Library, then that means they are saved locally.

Saving items to the cloud means you can access all of your saved design elements across any website you’re working on that is authenticated via your Divi account.

How To Transfer Locally Saved Library Items To Your Divi Cloud

Before proceeding with transferring items you’ll need to have some Divi Builder Elements already saved to your library. Chances are, you already have some, so let’s dive in!

How To Transfer Your Entire Local Divi Library At Once

If you want to transfer your entire local Divi Library items to your cloud all at once, follow these steps:

1. Via the WP Dashboard, go to Divi > Divi Library. Select all items or click the checkbox next to the items you want to export and then click the “Import & Export” button at the top of the page.
