# Conversation export

Conversation export means a product provides a documented way to export chat or conversation history; exported fields and formats are recorded as qualifiers.

- HTML: https://canmyagentuse.com/features/conversation-export
- JSON: https://canmyagentuse.com/api/v1/features/conversation-export.json
- Markdown: https://canmyagentuse.com/features/conversation-export.md

Terminology basis: **Common product term** — https://support.claude.com/en/articles/9450526-export-your-claude-data.

## Current support at a glance

Conversation export: 4 supported, 1 partial, 0 unsupported, 26 unreviewed across 31 cataloged products.

- Reviewed current products: 5 of 31
- Supported: 4
- Partial: 1
- Unsupported: 0
- Unreviewed: 26
- Not applicable: 0

Unknown or unreviewed means insufficient published evidence; it does not mean unsupported.

This row asks whether the product documents a conversation-export feature. A manual copy-and-paste action does not count as product-supported export.

Evidence should record the export format, included fields, single or bulk scope, availability delay, attachment handling, and whether the export can be imported elsewhere. Those details qualify support; they are not additional requirements hidden inside the term.

  - Qualification note 5: Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Perplexity sessions expose an Export action for a session answer in PDF, Markdown, or DOCX. The reviewed page does not establish a bulk account export or guarantee that every turn and attachment in the session is included, so this is partial conversation-export support.
