Does the export work as expected?

Hi! I'm using the Export → Bootstrap feature to mock Unleash flags for automated CI/CD tests.

1. I use the following button to export the current configuration:

2. I import the saved .json file in my Node.js Unleash config:

bootstrap: {
  filePath: import.meta.env.MODE === 'test' ? 'tests/static/unleash_bootstrap.json' : undefined
},

However, when starting the Node.js server, I get the following error, suggesting that the configuration is not quite correct:

[WebServer] Error: Unleash Repository error: feature.strategies should be an array, but was undefined, feature.enabled should be an boolean, but was undefined
[WebServer]     at Repository.validateFeature (/Users/jan-nicklas/Entwicklung/contacts/node_modules/unleash-client/lib/repository/index.js:88:25)

Here is the features part of the exported json file:

{
  "features": [
    {
      "name": "auth.signup",
      "type": "kill-switch",
      "project": "default",
      "stale": false,
      "impressionData": false,
      "archived": false
    }
  ]
}

Is there an error on my side or with the Export/Import feature?

Hello @JE4GLE! The import/export feature is for migrating between Unleash instances and is not compatible with SDKs.
To retrieve SDK-bootstrap compatible json you will need a client api token (server side token) and perform a GET on the /api/client/features endpoint!
