# Import local files

You can import an exported media plan that has been shared with you and has either a .PLAN or .JSON file extension. This is another option for sharing plans or audiences from one person to another. A .PLAN file can be created by exporting a shareable plan in the Planning Module. Once imported you can start working on a imported plan and you now own this version of this plan.

## How to import a Plan file (.json or .plan)

-   A operating system browser or finder pop-up will appear to so you can select the local file on your computer
-   Select the .PLAN or .JSON file you want to import
-   Click 'open'  and the Plan will open the file and load it as a new campaign with all the stored information created previously in that plan
