# Export a dashboard

This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB OSS. [InfluxDB 3 Core](/influxdb3/core/) is the latest stable version.

#### API token hashing is enabled by default in InfluxDB OSS 2.9.0

Stronger token security: tokens are stored as hashes on disk, so a copy of the database file doesn’t expose usable tokens. Existing tokens are hashed on first startup and the original strings can’t be recovered afterward — **capture any plaintext tokens you still need before you upgrade**.

For more information, see [Token hashing](/influxdb/v2/admin/tokens/#token-hashing).

InfluxDB lets you export dashboards from the InfluxDB user interface (UI).

1. In the navigation menu on the left, select **Boards** (**Dashboards**).
    
    Dashboards
    
2. Hover over a dashboard and click the gear icon (), and then select **Export**.
    
3. Review the JSON in the window that appears.
    
4. Select one of the following options:
    

-   **Download JSON**: Download the dashboard as a JSON file.
-   **Save as template**: Save the JSON as a dashboard template.
-   **Copy to Clipboard**: Copy the JSON to your clipboard.
