PRIVACY AND ACCESS

Export company knowledge

Download a scoped, readable ZIP with source-linked records, versions, provenance and checksums, and prepare it safely for another knowledge system.

01

Choose and download the archive

  1. 1
    Open Export

    Go to My Account → Privacy & data → Manage company knowledge. Select the company, then Export.

  2. 2
    Select company-owned projects

    Choose the projects whose plans and saved memory you want to include. Use the selection control to include all projects. Company process context is included even if you select only some projects.

  3. 3
    Choose history and observations

    Enable Include version history for older versions; otherwise the archive contains the latest source versions. Enable Include mapped external observations to add stored, dated evidence from permitted connections.

  4. 4
    Download company knowledge

    The browser downloads a ZIP named for the company. Export does not call an AI provider, automatically upload the archive or consume an AI reasoning request.

02

Understand the archive files

FilePurpose
README.md, schema.jsonFormat, limitations and guidance for interpreting the records.
objects.jsonl, work.jsonlStable work identities and selected operational context.
memory.jsonlSource-linked records and the selected versions.
process-events.jsonlIncluded company process context and events.
provenance.prov.json, provenance.prov.jsonldPROV representations of recorded entities, activities, version relationships and memory use.
connections.json, external-observations.jsonl, permissions.jsonSource metadata, optional stored observations and scope information.
manifest.jsonArchive metadata and SHA-256 checksums for the included files.
03

Know what is excluded

User-authored prose can still contain sensitive information. Review the readable archive even though credential and structured-field minimization is applied.

  • Connection credentials, authorization secrets and structured contact fields.
  • Private learner records and another company’s knowledge, including supplier memory merely shared with a client.
  • Live provider data that has not been stored as a mapped observation.
  • Missing historical provenance that was never recorded.
04

Prepare it for your own knowledge or LLM system

  1. 1
    Validate the package

    Read README.md and schema.json. Verify file checksums from manifest.json before importing the data.

  2. 2
    Preserve scope and evidence

    Keep company, project and object boundaries, version identities and record states. Draft or observed material must not silently become confirmed guidance in the destination.

  3. 3
    Review the destination

    Check its access controls, retention and provider terms. The owner must decide which records may be shared externally.

  4. 4
    Choose retrieval or training deliberately

    The archive is a portable knowledge corpus, not a ready-made provider fine-tuning dataset. Fine-tuning requires separately prepared and evaluated task-specific examples.

05

If export cannot finish

  • If ownership or the selected scope changes while the ZIP is assembled, refresh and select the scope again.
  • If the bounded export limit is exceeded, download smaller project batches. The service rejects oversized exports instead of silently truncating them.
  • If a saved encrypted record cannot be decoded, report the error. Do not assume the service skipped it or produced a complete archive.
  • Keep a downloaded archive secure. Erasing company memory later does not delete copies you already downloaded or gave to a provider.
