# Shared

TestMace provides a very convenient way of sharing nodes and even project subtrees. To import a subtree, choose the **Share** option in the chosen node context menu.

Let's export the project from the [Getting Started](https://docs.testmace.com/master/master) section as an example.

The `testmace://....` URL is copied into the clipboard.

Now you can import this URL into the chosen node. There are two ways to do that:

* import from the project context menu: **Import** -> **Shared**;
* import from the [Folder](https://docs.testmace.com/master/node-types/folder) or [Project](https://docs.testmace.com/master/node-types/project) nodes: **Import** -> **Shared**;

The Import dialog has the following interface:

You can set the root node name of the imported subtree in the **Name** field. Enter the previously exported URL in the URL field. If the root node name you specified already exists in the tree, the name will be changed to NodeName \[Copy \[number]].

You can see the animation of the import process down below:
