Export

Export is used to create and download to your machine a sqlite file of all data in the connection. In essence, this duplicates your KV store as a local (to you) file.

Caution

There are no consistency guarantees with this operation for databases with more than 500 entries.

Data is retrieved from the connection using 'list', which can only guarantee consistency for up to 500 entries per batch. If you have more entries than this in your store then consistency is not guaranteed between batches. :::

If the purpose of your export is for backups, then the following options are likely better suited:

• Deploy - See https://docs.deno.com/deploy/kv/manual/backup
• Local or self-hosted - Simply locate the db file(s) and copy it.

If neither are suitable, then you can ensure consistency with this export operation by pausing or taking down service (to ensure no modifications occur) while you perform the export.
