## Using PersistentStateComponent
The [`com.intellij.openapi.components.PersistentStateComponent`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/components/PersistentStateComponent.java) interface gives you the most flexibility for defining the values to be persisted, their format, and storage location.
The [`PersistentStateComponent`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/components/PersistentStateComponent.java) interface allows for persisting state classes and gives the most flexibility for defining the values to be persisted, their format, and storage location.
To use it:
- mark a [service](plugin_services.md) as implementing the `PersistentStateComponent` interface
- define the state class
- specify the storage location using `@com.intellij.openapi.components.State`
- specify the storage location using [`@State`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/components/State.java)
Note that instances of extensions cannot persist their state by implementing `PersistentStateComponent`.
If your extension needs to have a persistent state, you need to define a separate service responsible for managing that state.

The implementation of `PersistentStateComponent` works by serializing public fields, [annotated](%gh-ic%/platform/util/src/com/intellij/util/xmlb/annotations) private fields (see also [Customizing the XML format of persisted values](#customizing-the-xml-format-of-persisted-values)), and bean properties into an XML format.
To exclude a public field or bean property from serialization, annotate the field or getter with `@com.intellij.util.xmlb.annotations.Transient`.
To exclude a public field or bean property from serialization, annotate the field or getter with [`@Transient`](%gh-ic%/platform/util/src/com/intellij/util/xmlb/annotations/Transient.java).
Note that the state class must have a default constructor.
It should return the component's default state: the one used if there is nothing persisted in the XML files yet.

## Using PropertiesComponent for Simple Non-Roamable Persistence
If the plugin needs to persist just a few simple values, the easiest way to do so is to use the [`com.intellij.ide.util.PropertiesComponent`](%gh-ic%/platform/core-api/src/com/intellij/ide/util/PropertiesComponent.java) service.
If the plugin needs to persist just a few simple values, the easiest way to do so is to use the [`PropertiesComponent`](%gh-ic%/platform/core-api/src/com/intellij/ide/util/PropertiesComponent.java) service.
It can save both application-level values and project-level values in the workspace file.
Roaming is disabled for `PropertiesComponent`, so use it only for temporary, non-roamable properties.
