# Import and export

> Import Pricing JSON into Manage Models or Export Pricing as SDK-compatible pricing.json - duplicates are skipped on import

Use the header actions on **Manage Models** to move pricing between environments or feed the OpenLIT SDK a file.

## Export Pricing

Click the download icon in the header (tooltip: **Export Pricing**) to open `GET /api/openground/models/export` and download all models as SDK-compatible pricing JSON (download name `custom-pricing.json`), grouped by model type (chat, embeddings, images, audio).

This requires a signed-in OpenLIT session. For a public URL your apps can call without login, use the [SDK Pricing URL](/latest/openlit/costs/manage-models/sdk-pricing) instead.

## Import Pricing JSON

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the dialog">
    Click the upload icon in the header (tooltip: **Import Pricing JSON**).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Paste JSON">
    Paste either a structured `providers` + `models` payload, a models-only array, or an SDK-style `pricing_json` object. The dialog description: existing models with the same provider + model ID are skipped.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Import">
    Click **Import Pricing JSON**. The toast reports model `imported` / `skipped` counts (provider import counts are returned by the API but not shown in that toast).
  </Step>
</Steps>

Example structured payload (also shown as the dialog placeholder):

```json theme={null}
{
  "providers": [
    {
      "providerId": "my-provider",
      "displayName": "My Provider",
      "description": "Custom LLM provider"
    }
  ],
  "models": [
    {
      "provider": "my-provider",
      "model_id": "my-model-v1",
      "displayName": "My Model v1",
      "inputPricePerMToken": 2.5,
      "outputPricePerMToken": 10
    }
  ]
}
```

SDK-format imports without a provider default to provider `unknown` - edit those models afterward if needed.
