Exporting data into a data set

Export your data to prepare a backup copy outside the Pega Platform or to move data between data sets and the Pega Platform instances. A .zip file that you get as a result of this operation is a package that you need to use when importing data into a data set. You can export data from data sets that support the Browse operation excluding the stream data sets like Facebook, Stream, or YouTube.
