Role required: export_set_admin

About this task

An export definition specifies the data to be exported in an export set. This data includes a table, one or more fields, and optionally a filter to limit the included records.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to All > System Export Sets > Export Definition.

  2. Click New.

  3. Enter a descriptive Name for the export definition.

  4. Select the Table to export data from.

  5. Select one or more Fields from the selected table to export data from.

  6. Specify a Filter to export only certain records from the selected table.

    Specifying a filter condition on the Created (sys_created_on) or Updated (sys_updated_on) fields may prevent scheduled data exports from using delta exports functionality. Do not specify filter conditions on these fields if you intend to use scheduled delta exports.
