Configure your export: advanced features
Bulk Updater experts can apply the following splitters:
- One line per version: generates as many lines as each document has versions
- One line per attachment: generates as many lines as each document has attachments
Important: Splitters are available only when the update feature is disabled because splitting can result in multiple lines for a given document. Make sure the Update enabled check-box is not selected before running your export.
Note: The splitter One line per relation and the Templates feature are not currently available.
You can now run your export.
