# Export project

Export all project or folder items as a zip with Excel sheets, Word files for rich text, and attachments. Preserve item details. links require unzipping for full access. Limitations apply.

Using the context menu of a project or folder, you can export all items in the selected project or folder as an Excel file. Similarly, you can use the context menu of one or more selected items to export them.

The result of the export is always a zip file containing an Excel file with detailed information about the selected items, separate folders for all items with their attachments and Word files with rich text, e.g. descriptions or test steps. In the Excel file, the different types of items are stored in separate worksheets. The items are stored in the rows, with all the information from their fields in the corresponding columns. For description fields (rich text fields), Excel displays only plain text without formatting (as this is not supported by Excel). However, there is always a link to the formatted text, including images, as a Word file in a separate folder. For this link to work, the zip file must be unzipped before opening the Excel file. When the test scenarios are exported, the corresponding test cases are also automatically exported if the user has read permission for these test cases.&#x20;

The zip file can then be [imported ](/documentation/projects-and-folders/projects/import-project.md)back into aqua. It is recommended to use the same [project configuration](/documentation/project-configuration.md) to avoid incompatibilities.&#x20;

**Limitations:**

* Value sets for test cases are not exported
* Discussions are not exported
* The history and the test case execution history are not exported

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.aqua-cloud.io/documentation/projects-and-folders/projects/export-project.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
