## Add services from a virtualization project archive

To deploy services from an archive, they must be virtualization projects that were exported from the Designer. Exported projects are stored with the file extension `.vproja`.

To deploy services stored in a project archive file:

1. In the Services tab, on the bottom toolbar, click Add Service and select From File.

2. Click Select file to browse the file system and select a project.

3. In the Select Agents section, view the agents that were selected for each of the services.

   The dialog box suggests an agent by matching its name (first choice) and ID. If none are detected, then it suggests an agent that is currently running. If no agents are running, it suggests an existing agent that is not running.

   - A green check mark indicates that a match was found for the name or ID.
   - A warning symbol indicates that no match was found for the agent's name or ID. Accept the suggested agent or make your own selection.

   Note: This feature is part of the Early access features.

4. Click Deploy Services.

   The services are downloaded to your Service Virtualization server.
