# User Grid - Deployment Process
GridMate offers two deployment options for User Grids: a graphical interface through the **Admin Cockpit** and [**SF CLI Plugin**](/tools/sf-cli-plugin.md). The scenario in this tutorial is to create Accounts and Contacts User Grids and move them from org to another. User Grids exported in Salesforce metadata like format (JSON), can be easily modified using popular tools like VS Code before importing them back.

* Condition :
```json
{
"and": [

```
## User Grids Deployment
### Deployment Using **Admin Cockpit.**
The Accounts and Contacts User Grids are created and the inline component is also configured, we can start the Deployment using **Admin Cockpit**.
#### User Grids Export
* On the App Launcher search for the **GM - Admin Cockpit**.
* Select the **User Grid Maintenance.**
* Select the the **Accounts** and **Contacts** User Grids.
* Click **Export** to export them.
* Open the **Accounts** User Grid using **Visual Studio Code** for example:
* Change the Owner **Username** to the match the target org.
* Open the the **Contacts** User Grid using **Visual Studio Code**.
* Change the Owner **Username** to the match the target org.
#### User Grids Import
* Moving to the target org (Demo 13 in our example).
* Import the **Accounts** and **Contacts** User Grids using the **GM-Admin Cockpit**
* First import the **Contacts** User Grid. Inline grids should be always imported first to be able to link them when parent grids are imported.
* Second import the Account User Grid.
### Deployment Using CLI Plugin
After completing the [SF Cli Plugin Setup](#sf-cli-plugin-setup), we can now **Export/import** the User Grids.
#### User Grids Export
* Export the User Grid Using [SF Cli Plugin](/tools/sf-cli-plugin.md)
```
sf gmpkg usergrid export -o gmpkg-demo10 --api-version=58.0 -d "/Users/otmanetakhif/Desktop/WorkSpace/TrialForce/gridmate-demo/Downloaded" -n "Contact_nr9ma,Account_kozsu"
```
#### User Grids Import
* Change the Owner of the User Grids as explained in [Deployment Using Admin Cockpit](#deployment-using-admin-cockpit.)
* Import the **Contacts** User Grid Using [SF Cli Plugin](/tools/sf-cli-plugin.md)
```
sf gmpkg usergrid import -o demoOrg13 --api-version=58.0 -f "/Users/otmanetakhif/Desktop/WorkSpace/TrialForce/gridmate-demo/Downloaded/Contact_nr9ma.json"
```
* Import the Account User Grid Using [SF Cli Plugin](/tools/sf-cli-plugin.md)
```
sf gmpkg usergrid import -o demoOrg13 --api-version=58.0 -f "/Users/otmanetakhif/Desktop/WorkSpace/TrialForce/gridmate-demo/Downloaded/Account_kozsu.json"
```
## Final Result
Using either the **Admin Cockpit** or the **SF CLI Plugin** to obtain the desired results, On our target org (**Demo** **13**), locate the **Accounts** User Grid and **Contacts** Grid as an **inline component**.
