Export requests as JSON file

Exporting requests creates JSON files you can import into other bases. Only request configurations and response JSON are exported, not workspace data, base information, or personal settings.

How to export requests as JSON files

1. Sign in to your account and navigate to the Data Fetcher extension home screen.

2. Hover your mouse over the requests you want to export and click the empty checkbox (☐) next to each one to select them.

3. Once you've selected all desired requests, click the Export button (⬇️) that appears in the options bar.

4. In the export dialog, click Download file to save the JSON file to your computer.

5. The file will be downloaded to your default downloads location with a name based on the current time.

Security considerations when exporting requests

Important: Be mindful about sensitive information when exporting requests. Your export may contain:

• API keys and authentication tokens

• Private endpoint URLs

• Custom headers with sensitive information

• Personally identifiable information in request parameters or response JSON

For better security, consider these best practices:

1. Replace sensitive values with variables before exporting, so only variable names (not actual values) are included in the export file.

2. Review the JSON file before sharing it with others to ensure no confidential information is accidentally disclosed.

3. If sharing exported requests with team members, use secure channels for file transfer.

Your exported requests can be imported into any Data Fetcher installation using the Import from JSON feature.
