Overview

ExportImport is a utility module that sanitizes and prepares various Flowise data entities (tools, chatflows, variables, assistants, templates, document stores, and executions) for export as a unified JSON structure.

Description

This module provides sanitization functions for each Flowise entity type, stripping unnecessary or sensitive properties before export. Each sanitizer maps over an array of entities and returns only the essential fields. The main exportData function orchestrates all sanitizers to produce a complete export payload covering AgentFlows, ChatFlows, Assistants (Custom, OpenAI, Azure), Tools, Variables, CustomTemplates, DocumentStores, Executions, ChatMessages, and ChatMessageFeedbacks.

Usage

Use this module when implementing data export functionality, such as exporting workspace data for backup, migration, or sharing. The exportData function accepts a complete data object and returns a sanitized version ready for JSON download.
