However, if you 'undo' a set of steps and then start doing new transformations, the greyed out steps will disappear and you will no longer have the option to 'redo' these steps.

If you wish to save a set of steps to be re-applied later, for instance, to a different project, you can click the ```Extract``` button. This gives you the option to select steps that you want to save, and extract the code for those steps in a format called ‘JSON’. You can copy the extracted JSON and save it as a plain text file (e.g. in Notepad).

You can copy the extracted JSON and save it as a plain text file (e.g. in Notepad). If you are using OpenRefine version 3.6.0 or later, you can also click the ```Export``` button in the "Extract operation history" window to open a save dialog and directly save the JSON instead of first copying it to a text file.

To apply a set of steps you have copied or saved in this 'JSON' format use the ```Apply``` button and paste in the JSON. In this way you can share transformations between projects and with other people.
