export_collection

Export all documents from a collection to a downloadable file in formats like JSON, HTML, or Outline Markdown, preserving hierarchy and content. Use for backups, sharing, converting, or archiving offline.

Instructions

    Exports all documents in a collection to a downloadable file.
    
    IMPORTANT: This tool starts an asynchronous export operation which may 
    take time to complete. The function returns information about the 
    operation, including its status. When the operation is complete, the 
    file can be downloaded or accessed via Outline's UI. The export 
    preserves the document hierarchy and includes all document content and 
    structure in the 
    specified format.
    
    Use this tool when you need to:
    - Create a backup of collection content
    - Share collection content outside of Outline
    - Convert collection content to other formats
    - Archive collection content for offline use
    
    Args:
        collection_id: The collection ID to export
        format: Export format ("outline-markdown", "json", or "html")
        
    Returns:
        Information about the export operation and how to access the file
