Copying an App between Servers
If you need to transfer an application between servers (for example, if you are a developer running CommCare HQ locally, or have a second instance of CommCare HQ running elsewhere):
On the server containing the app you want to copy, go to the URL: http://[SERVER ADDRESS]/a/[PROJECT NAME]/apps/source/<APP_ID>. For example: https://www.commcarehq.org/a/demo/apps/source/071abeb39a1039df30613c494caa9bc3
You should see a block of JSON-formatted text.
