Downloading the Archive Containing the Current Exported Data for the Project
When a data export is run for a project, the exported data is saved to a <projectId>-export-<date>_<time>.zip file located in the exports/<projectId> folder of your Code Insight installation. Each subsequent data export performed for the project overwrites the previous archive.
Code Insight provides the option to download a copy of a project’s current export archive to the default download location for your browser. You might want to perform this download for one or more reasons, including:
| • | Provide easy access to the archive when selecting it for a project import. (Once the archive file is downloaded, you can copy it to any location.) |
| • | Secure a backup copy of the most recently exported data. |
Use the following procedure to download this archive from the Code Insight installation folder.
To download the archive containing the a project’s most recently exported data, do the following:
| 1. | As Project Administrator or Analyst, navigate to the project’s Summary tab (see Opening the Project Summary Tab). |
| 2. | Locate the Export Project field in the Project Data section. |
| 3. | Click the “here” link in the status description. |
The file is downloaded to your browser’s default location.
Note:If no export was previously run on the project, the Export Project field shows “No project data has been exported”, and consequently no link is available. This same message is also displayed for projects previously in a Code Insight 2023 R4 or later instance that has been upgraded, but the exports folder has not been copied to the upgraded instance.
