[[saved-objects-api-export-request-response-body]]
|
|
==== Response body
|
|
|
|
The format of the response body is newline delimited JSON. Each exported object is exported as a valid JSON record and separated by the newline character '\n'.
|
|
|
|
When `excludeExportDetails=false` (the default) we append an export result details record at the end of the file after all the saved object records. The export result details object has the following format:
|
|
|
|
