# WEB\_EXPORT

## Export Asset or Adobe Project Sources

This CO event will be triggered when the 'Export' [profile](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/helmut4-components/helmuthk/profiles) of a specific element within the Cosmo project views is invoked through the action button menu.

Depending on the underlaying stream, various workflows can be triggered like exporting the element via Adobe Media Encoder.

When clicking the dedicated profile, an overlay window will open, allowing the input of various job-related information, depending on the [metadata set](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/helmutio/metadata#metadata-set).

## Pro Tools Session Bounce

When viewing a Pro Tools project in Cosmo’s Project view, you can bounce (export) the session. To begin an export, you need two prerequisites:

1. **Pro Tools** is running with the target session open.
2. A **Web Export** profile and stream have been configured.

## Host Assignment

{% hint style="warning" %}
Any stream with this trigger must have "CLIENT" as the host type. Since this stream needs to be assigned to any user/client, server execution is not possible.
