Exports
Exporting profile data
The Export dropdown returns a JSON, XML, or CSV file of the currently visible dataset, generated inside the request and capped at 500 items per list.
The Export button on a profile page opens a dropdown with the currently available formats: JSON or XML for the full profile bundle, CSV for one resource at a time (followers, following, posts, reels). The file is generated synchronously inside the request and streamed back — there is no background job, no signed URL, and no email delivery.
Each list is capped at 500 items per format, matching the snapshot capture bound. Coverage numbers travel with the data so a downstream reader can see what fraction of the real dataset an export represents.
