# Quickstart

> Run a complete export end-to-end with five curl calls

<sup>Questions or issues? Contact us at [api-support@manus.ai](mailto:api-support@manus.ai).</sup>

This walkthrough creates a full data export for one user and downloads the archive. Replace `<your-api-key>` with an enterprise API key from the [Compliance API settings](https://manus.im/app#settings/compliance-api) (see [Authentication](/enterprise/v1/authentication)).

## Step 1 — Preview the user's tasks (optional)

```bash theme={null}
curl --location --request POST 'https://api.manus.im/dataexport.v1.EnterpriseDataExportService/ListTasks' \
  --header 'X-API-Key: <your-api-key>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
    "user": "user@example.com",
    "page": 1,
    "page_size": 10
  }'
```

## Step 2 — Create the export task

```bash theme={null}
curl --location --request POST 'https://api.manus.im/dataexport.v1.EnterpriseDataExportService/CreateExport' \
  --header 'X-API-Key: <your-api-key>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
    "user_id": "114504",
    "scope": "ENTERPRISE_EXPORT_SCOPE_FULL",
    "include_files": true,
    "reason": "compliance audit"
  }'
```

Save the returned `uid` for the next steps.

## Step 3 — Poll until the export is ready

```bash theme={null}
curl --location --request POST 'https://api.manus.im/dataexport.v1.EnterpriseDataExportService/GetExport' \
  --header 'X-API-Key: <your-api-key>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
    "uid": "<export-uid>"
  }'
```

Repeat until `record.status` is `EXPORT_STATUS_COMPLETED`. If it becomes `EXPORT_STATUS_FAILED`, inspect `record.error_message`. (`EXPORT_STATUS_CANCELLED` indicates the export was cancelled.)

## Step 4 — Mint a download URL

```bash theme={null}
curl --location --request POST 'https://api.manus.im/dataexport.v1.EnterpriseDataExportService/GetDownloadURL' \
  --header 'X-API-Key: <your-api-key>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-raw '{
    "uid": "<export-uid>"
  }'
```

## Step 5 — Download the archive

```bash theme={null}
curl -o export.zip "<download-url>"
```

The archive contents are described in [Overview → Export file structure](/enterprise/v1/data-export-overview#export-file-structure). The download URL is valid for **10 minutes** — re-run step 4 to mint a new one if it expires.
