Export History

Nobody wants to rebuild a fifty-page export because they closed the tab. Every export you run is recorded in the Exports tab, ready to download again.

The Exports tab listing previous exports with date, author, page count and status

Open XPress in a space and click the Exports tab at the top.

Made documents in three different spaces this week? Open Apps → XPress and your ten most recent exports are waiting for you under Your recent exports, ready to download again, with no need to remember which space each one came from.

The list is yours alone: it shows only exports you ran yourself, from spaces you can still open. A colleague’s exports stay in the Exports tab of the space they came from.

Column
Date When the export was started
Created By Who ran it
Pages How many pages went in
Status Where it got to - see below
A Download button, once the file is ready
Badge What it means
COMPLETED (green) Finished. The Download button is live.
QUEUED (grey) Accepted and waiting to start.
PROCESSING (blue) Running now.
ERROR (red) It did not finish.

If a row shows ERROR, Troubleshooting covers what each failure means and what to do about it. If you cannot tell which applies, email support@bytera.tech with the space and roughly how many pages.

30 days. After that the file is deleted automatically and the row leaves the list.

The lists themselves are short on purpose: the Exports tab shows the space’s 20 most recent exports, and Your recent exports your own 10 most recent. On a busy space an older export can scroll out of view before its 30 days are up.

That is deliberate. XPress is built for active work, not as an archive - if a document matters long term, download it and keep it where your other documents live.

Switch spaces and the Exports tab shows that space’s exports. Your work in one space does not clutter another - the only view across spaces is your own, in Your recent exports.

The list is visible to anyone who can open XPress in the space, so colleagues can see that an export happened, when, and who ran it.

Downloading is checked separately, and it is stricter than the list. If you ran the export, you can always download it. Anyone else can only open it if they can currently read every page inside it - so a page they are restricted from keeps the whole file out of reach, even though they can see the row. Seeing an export in the list is not the same as being able to open it.
