Export all deleted components

You can download a copy of content stored in Inspire projects as a way to back up important content or to move it to another application that Inspire doesn't communicate with.

To export all deleted components:

  1. Click Components.
  2. In the Folders pane, select the Deleted Items folder.
  3. In the Deleted Items pane, in the column header before Name, select the down arrow, and then select one of the following options:
    • Select all items from this page - this checks the selection checkbox for all components listed on this page. If there are other pages, those components aren't selected.
    • Select all items (from all pages) - this checks the selection checkbox for all components listed on ever page. If there are other pages after the one you can see, those components are selected.
  4. In the Selected Components pane that opens on the right side, go to the toolbar and click Export .
  5. On the Export Component dialog, select an Export Configuration (Standard) from the list.
    Note: An administrator can choose an export configuration to be shown automatically as the default. If you need to use something other than the default, you can select another option.
  6. Click Export.
    Results: You see a message that the export has begun.
    • If you see a warning notification it means that the component was locked during export or you did not have permission to export the components.
    • When you complete a task that triggers a notification, such as exporting content, the Slack and email message bodies contain:
      • The notification with ten or less Issues, Errors, and Warnings.
      • A link at the bottom of the message [See Full Version].
      • You can click the [See Full Version] link to expand a section under the link with the full details.

    • If you export more than one component, regardless of whether you include references, the files are packaged in a ZIP file. Exporting multiple components uses the following ZIP name:

      Exports-DateTime.zip

      • For example, Exports-2024-12-27-050426.zip.
      • No Component Name is included.
  7. To download the exported content, do any of the following:
    • Go to your email Inbox and open a message from noreply@vasont.com with a subject line of Export completed successfully. Click the link to download your exported content.
    • In the top menu, click Notifications Notification TopMenu . From the list of notifications, with a subject line of Export completed successfully. Click the link to download your exported content.
