# Export history

Open `Data documents` > `Export history` to investigate exports across data documents.

## Find an export

Search for an export or combine these filters:

* `Document`
* `Status`
* `Started By`
* `From`
* `Thru`

Use `Previous` and `Next` to move through result pages.

## Read an export record

An export record can show:

* Export or system message identifier
* Data document
* Status
* User
* Start and completion times
* Delivery or processing metadata

Select the record to open its detail.

## Trace export processing

Export detail uses the system-message detail experience. Review:

* Status history
* Operation sequence
* Errors
* Payload or result data
* Related messages

See [Trace a system message](/documents/retail-operations/workflow/workflow/system-messages/message-details.md) for the investigation pattern.

## Investigate a failed export

1. Filter `Status` to the failed state.
2. Open the export.
3. Identify the first failed operation.
4. Record the error and export identifier.
5. Return to the document.
6. Review `Issues`, `Fields`, `Conditions`, and `Preview`.
7. Correct the definition or schedule only when the error identifies that cause.

Do not rerun an export repeatedly while the original request is still processing.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.hotwax.co/documents/retail-operations/workflow/workflow/data-documents/export-history.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
