Understand DS file
Deluge Script (DS) File is a file that stores the structure of a Zoho Creator Application in text format. It captures everything about an Application, right from the Forms, Fields, Reports, Pages, Deluge scripts, Schedules, Sections to Application-level settings.
The DS file of an application can be exported from Application IDE in Application Settings. Inversely, a DS file can be created into an application using the import feature.
Note:
- The DS file of a Zoho Creator Application does not store data maintained in that application. It stores only the application's structure and settings.
- To take a backup of your application with the data mantained in it, refer this topic.
