Import, Export, or Delete a Collection Extension
You import collection extensions on the Collection Extensions tab. You export and delete them from the detailed view of a collection extension.
NOTE: To import a collection extension, the action that it runs must already be imported on this tenant. See Transferring Automations Across Tenants.
