# Export Password Protected Files

This section describes how to export password-protected non-container files with the Java API.

To export password-protected files

1. Create an instance of the `ConfigOption` class, and set the `OptionType` argument to `CFG_SETPASSWORD`, the `OptionValue` argument to `TRUE`, and the `OptionData` argument to the source file password. The password is a null-terminated string of 255 or fewer characters (the final byte is null).

2. Call the `setConfigOption` method`` and pass the `ConfigOption` object.

3. Call a convert method. See the Javadoc in the directory `install\javaapi\javadoc`, where `install` is the path name of the Export installation directory.
