# Managing Scene Sets In the PRISM app, a **Scene** is a collection of sources, such as images, videos, text, and audio, arranged to create a single layout for your broadcast. Scenes allow streamers to switch between layouts seamlessly during a live stream. All scenes and sources are saved and managed in units called **Scene Sets**, which group multiple scenes together. This helps users organize and save specific layouts for different broadcast types, such as gaming, vertical streaming, or IRL content. Scene sets can be managed through the **Scene Set Management** window, where users can add, remove, export, or import scene sets easily. *** You can find the **Scenes** tab in the lower-left corner of the interface. All scenes within the current Scene Set are displayed here. Next to the **Scenes** label, you’ll see the name of the active Scene Set. Clicking this name opens a dropdown menu that lists all available Scene Sets, allowing you to switch between them easily. To open the **Scene Set Management** window, click the button located at the bottom of the dropdown menu.

You can switch between other Scene Sets easily.

In the **Scene Set Management** window, you can switch between Scene Sets, rename them, or remove unwanted Scene Sets. Additional options, such as duplicating or exporting a Scene Set, are available via the More button next to each Scene Set. You can also add new Scene Sets by creating them from scratch, importing scene sets from files, or selecting one of the Scene templates provided by the PRISM app. Scene templates offer pre-designed layouts to help you quickly set up your broadcast. For more information about using Scene templates, please refer to the following page: * [using-scene-templates](https://guide.prismlive.com/desktop/guides/features/scene/using-scene-templates "mention")

The scene and source information is saved locally on your device, not tied to your account. This means that if you log out and log back in from different device, the contents of your Scenes and sources will be lost unless they are saved beforehand. To avoid losing your settings, we recommend exporting a Scene Set file to save your scenes before logging out. And when you attempt to log out in the PRISM app, the following dialog box will appear:
If you choose to save the scene collection file, it will allow you to restore your Scenes and sources later. When you log in again, you can easily import your previously saved Scenes and sources using that file. This ensures that your settings are preserved and can be reused across sessions. *** ## Exporting scene set Click the active scene set name next to the **Scenes** tab label. Open the **Scene Set Management** window by click the button located at the bottom of the dropdown menu.

There are two types of export file formats: **.psc** and **.json**. * The **.psc** format is the PRISM Scene Collection format, specifically designed for the PRISM app. This format ensures compatibility and makes it easy to distinguish files intended for PRISM. * The **.json** format is more universal and can be shared across various streaming applications. Consider your purpose when exporting and select the format that best suits your needs. You can also access the **Export scene set** button from the **Scenes** tab by clicking the More button at the top-right corner.

You can also access the Export scene set button from the Scenes tab.
