# overlane enterprise data export

{/* Generated by apps/docs/scripts/generate.mjs (CLI pages from the command registry in packages/cli). Do not edit; run `pnpm --filter @overlane/docs gen`. */}

Writes memory, derived text, vectors (metadata only), conversations, CI records, logs and, for the tenant scope, the audit log, one JSON record per line. Open to every plan.

## Usage

```sh
overlane enterprise data export [--scope SCOPE] [--subject ID] [--out FILE] [--dry-run]
```

## Flags

| Flag | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `--scope` | one of `tenant`, `project`, `user` | no | `tenant` | tenant (default), project or user |
| `--subject` | string | no |  | The project or user ID for a project or user scope |
| `--out` | string | no | `export.ndjson` | Where to write the file |
| `--dry-run` | boolean | no |  | Print the requests and file changes this command would make, then stop. Needs no credentials. |

## Examples

```sh
overlane enterprise data export --out export.ndjson
overlane enterprise data export --scope project --subject prj-1
```

## Behavior

- Effect: `write` (changes local or hosted state).
- Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
- Supports `--dry-run`: yes. Accepts `--force`: no.
- Machine-readable description: `overlane schema enterprise data export`.

## Result

With `--json` (the default when stdout is not a terminal) the command prints this JSON Schema's shape on stdout.
