Importing Code Profiles
Use your local settings and extensions while working in Devin’s IDE
Working in VS Code is easier with your familiar Settings, Extensions, and Keybindings. Follow this tutorial to upload your local settings manually.
Triggering the Auto-Import Flow
This workflow imports your profile automatically.
- Open any Devin session
- Open the command palette with Cmd+Shift+P and search for “Preferences: Devin: Import Profile (Auto)”.
- Follow the steps on the screen. You will need to run a bash script on your computer locally to upload your profile.
- Once you confirm the profile by visiting the app.devin.ai URL, your profile will be uploaded to our server.
Exporting Your Local Profile Manually
If the Auto-Import Flow isn’t working, follow these steps for manual export and import.
Watch this video to see how to do export your Profile in VS Code (including VS Code forks):
Step by step instructions:
- Go to VS Code, Cmd+Shift+P -> Preferences: Open Profiles (UI)
- Right click your profile (usually Default).
- Click Export and choose File in the quick pick that appears.
- Save the file to disk. This will get saved to a
.code-profile
file.
Importing Your .code-profile
File Manually
Once you have a .code-profile file, you can upload it to any Devin session IDE.
Step by step instructions:
- Open any Devin session
- Open the command palette with Cmd+Shift+P and search for “Preferences: Devin: Import Profile (Manual)”.
- Select the file you uploaded. This will upload your profile to the machine. All your extensions and settings should then be auto-installed.
Settings Sync
We now have support for Settings Sync across sessions. Both of the above methods for importing your Code Profile will persist your settings across all of your Devin sessions.
