What compression file types does export support?
| Format | File extension | Description |

| ZIP | .zip | Compresses multiple files and directories into one archive, including metadata such as file paths, dates, and attributes. |
What is the file-naming convention for exported data files?
By default, output export file names are built by the next template - part_<part-number>, where <part-number> indicates the number of the part of the generated output file. The numbering starts from zero.
For example, if entities/testName is the custom path parameter for the export files destination, then the output file is named as entities/testName/part_00001.csv.gz.
- entities/testName/part_00000.csv.gz
- entities/testName/part_00001.csv.gz
- entities/testName/part_00002.csv.gz
- entities/testName/part_00003.csv.gz
- entities/testName/part_00004.csv.gz
