Export the data managed in your W&B Dedicated Cloud instance, such as runs, metrics, artifacts, and reports, when you need a portable copy for backup, migration, or external analysis. To extract this data, use the W&B SDK API with the Import and Export API. The following table covers some key export use cases.
| Purpose | Documentation |
|---|
| Export project metadata | Projects API |
| Export runs in a project | Runs API |
| Export reports | Report and Workspace API |
| Export artifacts | Explore artifact graphs, Download and use artifacts |
If you manage artifacts stored in the Dedicated Cloud with Secure Storage Connector, you might not need to export the artifacts using the W&B SDK API.
Using the W&B SDK API to export all of your data can be slow if you have many runs, artifacts, and similar resources. W&B recommends running the export process in appropriately sized batches to avoid overwhelming your Dedicated Cloud instance.
