# Snapshot Upload and Download Improvements

> Components of a what to include in a snapshot can now be selected.

We have added the ability to select which components of a snapshot you want to keep when downloading or uploading a snapshot.

The options available are:

- Flows: Include the flows of the snapshot
- Credentials: Include the credentials of the snapshots flows
- Environment Variables

  - Keys and Values: Include the keys and values of the environment variables
  - Keys Only: Include only the keys of the environment variables

This feature can help you be specific about what you want to include in a downloaded snapshot. This is especially useful when
you want to share a snapshot with others, but don't want to include sensitive information like credentials. Also,
when you receive a snapshot that needs importing into a different FlowFuse platform or team, you can can now be selective
about what to keep and what to exclude.

See the [Snapshots](/docs/user/snapshots) documentation for more information.
