đź“Ą Export Viewtracker Data Center/Server Data
There are three ways to export the data collected by Viewtracker: via the built-in CSV export, REST API, or SQL.
Exports will adhere to Confluence's permission settings. This means that any content a user does not have access to within Confluence will be marked as
RESTRICTED
in the export.
If you are looking for instructions on how to export Viewtracker configuration information, please see How to create a Viewtracker Support ZIP.
For information on importing, please go to Import Data.
