# Save a Measurement

In this section, learn how to save your measurement diagrams, and how to keep them organised by creating project folders.

{% hint style="info" %}
Measurements are stored locally on your device and are **not automatically backed up**. If your device is lost, reset, or the app is removed, any unsaved data may be permanently lost. To protect your data, we strongly recommend:

* Saving your measurements regularly
* Exporting and backing up important files to another device or cloud service
  {% endhint %}

1. Tap **File**.
2. Tap **Open**.
3. Tap the **+** icon.
4. Enter a **New Project Folder Name**.
5. Tap **Save** and your folder will appear.
6. Tap on the **arrow** in the top-left corner to return to the canvas.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you open and close a file without making any changes, you won't receive a prompt to save, and nothing will have changed. If you open a file and make changes, you'll be presented with two options: **Save** and **Save As** — **Save** overwrites your existing file including any changes, while with **Save As**, you save the updated file as a new version, with a new file name and/or folder.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.moasure.com/en/moasure-one-and-moasure-2-series/measure-and-edit/save-a-measurement.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
