> 🙋‍♂️ **Badisse Bouabdallah** _asked_ ## Hi all, I’ve got some troubles trying to import a meta.zip file generated from another project. When I import the zip file, I get this error “Missing file config”. I saw that I should have a ‘nc\_project.json’ inside the generated meta.zip, but I only have a ‘swagger.json’ file. I’m using docker-compose with pg database, and I’m on the latest version of nocodb (0.84.1). If someone have a workaround, it will be helpfull. Thanks by advance ---
