Process for backing up plug-ins and rolling back in case of issues

Hi all,

What's the correct process for backing up plug-ins and then reverting back to this version after an upgrade if necessary?

I've tried selecting the plug-ins, clicking "Download Selected" to get the zip folder, and then importing this ZIP folder but this is giving me the following message:

The specified file does not contain a valid package and cannot be imported. (APNX-1-4154-000)

Thanks

    Most plugins come in the form of a jar file. If you unzip the file, is there a jar file somewhere in there?

    Thanks for the reply Mathieu. Yeah, if I unzip the zip folder there's a jar file for each of the plugins. Is there a way to install through these?

    On-Premise, copy them to the plugins folder. On cloud, only through the admin console and not using the JAR file, but only the Appian provided online repo.
