is there any information about what your plugin options are? Or what you mean by import/export? Are you trying to build an import/export page in your plugin? Or are you trying to copy the options from one site to another? Or build a CLI command? Any context you can add would be super helpful

You could export them using either get_option($name) on all your keys, or extracting them from wp_load_alloptions() array if they're autoloaded options (default). Make a JSON file or just string and download it, read it later and use set_option($name, $value) to import each option individually.

do you know how to create empty/blank menus and pages in WP Admin? If we can narrow it down to the specific part that isn't clear to you it will help when writing the answer
