Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between exporting a page versus a space?
A page export gives you a single document as PDF or Word, while a space export bundles multiple pages, comments, and attachments into a CSV or HTML archive.
What format should I choose for a full space backup?
CSV is the high-fidelity option recommended for complete backups since it preserves structural data better than a simple PDF export.
Can I exclude drafts from a space export?
Yes, advanced filters let you include or exclude specific page clusters, drafts, and system attachments.
How do I verify a large export downloaded correctly?
Open the downloaded ZIP container afterward to verify the text structures and media directories are all present.
