Every diagram you create in Just Flow It can be exported as a standard BPMN 2.0 .bpmn file — a plain XML file that any BPMN-compliant tool can open, execute, or simulate. Whether you’re handing off a diagram to a developer working in Camunda or sharing a process model with a colleague who uses Bizagi, the exported file will open exactly as it appears in Just Flow It.

How to export a BPMN file

1

Open the diagram

Navigate to the diagram you want to export and open it in the editor.
2

Click Export

In the toolbar, click the Export button. A panel will appear listing the available export formats.
3

Choose BPMN 2.0 (.bpmn)

Select BPMN 2.0 (.bpmn) from the format list.
4

Download the file

Click Download. The .bpmn file is saved to your device’s default download folder. The filename matches your diagram name — you can rename it after downloading.

What the export includes

The exported .bpmn file is a complete representation of your diagram. Nothing is lost in translation:
