What You'll Learn

This article explains how to download your AI Studio project codebase as a ZIP file, including accessing previous versions from your project history.

You'll learn multiple download methods and understand how this feature enables external development, local editing, and custom hosting options.

What is Download Codebase?

Download Codebase allows you to export your entire AI Studio project as a ZIP file containing all project files and code. This gives you direct access to the websites, applications, and tools you build inside AI Studio.

You can download the current version of your project or access previous versions through your project history. Each downloaded ZIP file includes the complete codebase as it existed at that point in time.

This feature enables you to work with your project code outside of HighLevel, whether you want to edit locally, continue development with external tools, or host your application on your own infrastructure.

Key Benefits

Downloading your codebase provides flexibility and control over your AI Studio projects:

External Development — Continue building your project using external AI coding agents or development tools outside of AI Studio.
Local Editing — Make manual code changes in your preferred text editor or IDE for greater control and customization.
Backup and Archiving — Keep local copies of your project code for version control, backup purposes, or offline reference.
Custom Hosting — Host or deploy your application on external servers, cloud platforms, or your own infrastructure.
Version Access — Download any previous version of your project from Version History as a separate ZIP file.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What files are included in the downloaded ZIP?
The ZIP file contains your complete project codebase, including all HTML, CSS, JavaScript, configuration files, assets, and any other files that make up your AI Studio project.
Q: Can I upload the downloaded code back to AI Studio?
The download feature is designed for exporting code. If you make changes externally and want to continue in AI Studio, you can manually copy and paste updated code sections back into your project through the Code editor.
Q: Does downloading my codebase affect my AI Studio project?
No. Downloading creates a copy of your code. Your original project remains unchanged in AI Studio and you can continue working on it normally.
Q: Can I download code from projects I don't own?
You can only download codebase from projects where you have appropriate access permissions. Project owners and collaborators with sufficient permissions can download the code.
Q: How many versions can I download?
You can download as many versions as are available in your Version History. Each version downloads as a separate ZIP file, allowing you to access any point in your project's development timeline.
Q: What should I do after downloading my codebase?
Extract the ZIP file to a folder on your computer. You can then open the code in your preferred text editor, IDE, or development environment. The code is ready to run locally, modify, or deploy to external hosting platforms.
Q: Is there a file size limit for downloads?
Download Codebase exports your complete project regardless of size. Larger projects may take longer to prepare and download depending on the amount of code and assets included.
Q: Can I use the downloaded code commercially?
Yes. The code you build and download from AI Studio is yours to use as you see fit, including for commercial purposes, hosting on external servers, or integrating into other applications.
