# /api/v1/export

Manage **exports** — long-running jobs that bundle objects and their files into a downloadable archive (TAR.GZ or ZIP). All `/export` endpoints require an authenticated user (a valid access token, sent as `Authorization: Bearer`, `X-Fylr-Authorization: Bearer`, or the `access_token` query parameter); there is no dedicated system right for the feature. Exports are user-scoped: each export records the `user_id` that saved it, and the handlers permit access only to that owner or to a `system.root` user.

### `GET /export` — List the authenticated user's exports.
