How to export your entire account's data

 

As the account admin, you can download your entire account's data to your device. This will download all the boards in the account, including shareable and private boards, as well as any files that have been uploaded to your boards.

 

Note: Exporting your account's data, especially on larger accounts, may take up to 24 hours to complete.

Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, where you will see the Export account data section. Click on Export. This will export all of the data (including shareable and private boards) in your account to a zip file.

You can also choose to exclude any files added to your boards by ticking the box above the export button. This will help speed up the export if you need it to download faster without attached files.

Note: Archived boards and workdocs are not supported when exporting the account data. It is advisable to export your workdocs as a PDF before exporting your account data as not to lose them in the process. 

 

Once you click Export, you will receive a message indicating that the export is in progress and will take up to 24 hours. Untitled design - 2025-05-27T160744.409 (1).gif

You will then receive an email with a link to download all your account data as a zip file to your computer. Click Download here as so:
