Data export guide

Understand what is inside a data export.

An export can be a ZIP full of technical filenames, tables, nested JSON, images, and documents. Start with its contents, not with a guess about which file matters.

Open an export Your selected files are processed in your browser.

Why a folder list is not enough

A personal data export may split one subject across several files. A conversation can contain nested messages; an order can have separate items and returns; images may sit beside JSON metadata. Unwrap keeps the original files visible while presenting the datasets and media it can recognize.

Three steps to a first overview

From a collection back to its source

Overview highlights datasets and media worth exploring. Open Files to browse the original files and their source paths. From an open dataset, check its source filename, fields, and sample records before deciding where to go next.

If a file could not be opened, check its entry in Files and the details in Findings. See open a ZIP data export for more on navigating archives.

Common questions

Can I still see the original filenames?

Yes. Use Files to see the original filenames and source paths. An opened dataset also shows its source file.

What if a file does not open?

Check Files for the affected entry and Findings for details about import issues.

Will opening the export modify it?

No. The workspace is read-only; your source files remain unchanged.
