ForceVue

Exporting workspace data

Download everything in a workspace as a single ZIP archive.

You can download everything in a workspace as one ZIP archive. The export includes every document as Markdown, all context items and goals as JSON, the original files you uploaded, and the chat knowledge base with its citations intact.

How to export

Open Settings and find the Workspace data export card. Click Download everything. ForceVue builds the archive and starts the download automatically. The download link expires after 15 minutes, so grab the file right away. If the link lapses, export again.

What is in the archive

  • Documents: every document as a Markdown file, foldered by initiative and document type. These match the single-document Markdown export exactly.
  • Context and goals: JSON files for each initiative plus workspace-level files, including the structured fields of any decision items.
  • Uploaded sources: the original files you uploaded (PDF, DOCX, TXT, MD), copied as-is.
  • Knowledge base: your chat threads and messages as JSON, with each citation pointing at its source file inside the same archive.
  • manifest.json: a machine-readable inventory at the archive root describing the workspace, the export time, and every file in the ZIP.

Who can export

Owners and admins can always export. Members can only export when an owner or admin turns on Allow members to export on the same Settings card. That switch is off by default, which is the right setting for most client workspaces.

Every export is recorded in the workspace activity log.

What is not included

The export covers one workspace at a time. A consultant home workspace export does not include client workspace content, and a client workspace export does not include the home library. Embeddings and other search internals are never part of the archive.
