Export a project backup

Export a ZIP backup of a single project for your records, insurance, or migration. Output includes metadata, synced files, local drafts, and the portal URL when available.

Start export

Project detail → Overview → Export project backup

On cellular with multiple large files, Handysuite asks you to confirm before downloading.

What is in the ZIP

Enlarge

• manifest.json — export metadata and warnings
• job.json — project fields, timeline, metrics (includes private fields not shown on portal)
• portal-link.txt — client URL when configured
• files/ — downloaded originals grouped by file type
• drafts/ — local quotation, contract, or damage-report drafts not yet uploaded
• pending-uploads/ — queued files not yet synced (with warning in manifest)

Offline behavior

Export needs network access to download server-backed files. If you are offline and files exist only in the cloud, export is blocked with a clear message rather than a partial archive.
