Export an Entry
Exporting an entry in Contentstack allows you to download its data in JSON format, making content migration, backup, or reuse seamless.
To export an existing entry, log in to your Contentstack account, and perform the following steps:
- Go to your stack and click the “Entries” icon in the left navigation panel or use the shortcut key “E” (for both Windows and Mac users).
- Select the entry you want to export.
- Click the horizontal ellipses at the bottom of the entry editor, and select Export.
- You get a JSON file of the entry in your local system. You can modify this file as needed and import it to the stack.
- Alternatively, you can also export the entry from the entry list page.
- Locate the entry you want to export and click the vertical ellipsis in the Actions column
- From the dropdown menu, select Export.
