Script Compatibility between Studio and Desktop Studio

Studio and Desktop Studio scripts are compatible. Any script that's saved to the CXone Mpower servers can be opened in either application.

Scripts cannot be exported from one application and imported into the other. This is because Desktop Studio scripts are XML and Studio scripts are JSON. The import feature cannot convert between formats.

Most Studio actions are available in both versions of the application. If an action isn't available in the version of Studio you're using, you can still see it in the script. However, you may not be able to modify the properties of those actions. You can open the script in the version of Studio you originally used if you need to modify those actions.
