Export one or more schemas to a downloadable zip file. This endpoint allows you to backup or transfer your AI schemas between workspaces.

The exported zip file contains all schema definitions, field mappings, and related metadata needed to recreate the schemas.

How It Works

1. Select Schemas

Choose which schemas to export by providing their IDs

2. Export Request

Send the schema IDs to receive a pre-signed download URL

3. Download File

Use the pre-signed URL to download the exported zip file

Request Parameters

Request Body

The request body must contain a JSON object with the following property:

Property	Type	Required	Description
aiSchemaIds	string	Yes	Comma-separated list of schema IDs to export

Example Request Body:

{
  "aiSchemaIds": "649e2d2d2d2d2d2d2d2d2d2d,649e2d2d2d2d2d2d2d2d2d2e"
}

Downloading the Exported File

The pre-signed download URL is valid for 1 hour only. Download the file promptly.

# Use the download URL from the response
curl -o exported-schemas.zip "https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/exported-schemas.zip?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE&Signature=...&Expires=3600"

Export File Contents

The exported zip file contains:

Schema definitions - JSON files with field mappings and validation rules
Blueprint configurations - Document type classifications and extraction rules
Metadata - Creation timestamps, version information, and relationships

Exported schemas can be imported into other workspaces using the /prod/v1/files/schema/import endpoint.

Best Practices

Regular backups - Export schemas periodically to maintain backups
Workspace transfers - Use export/import to move schemas between workspaces
Version control - Keep track of exported files for schema versioning
Validate before import - Review exported contents before importing to new workspaces

This endpoint accepts an optional Idempotency-Key request header so a retry cannot apply the change twice. See Idempotent requests.
