cbexport is used to export data from Couchbase in various different formats.

For more information on how specific commands work you can run "cbexport <command> --help".

If a cbexport command is named, this option will bring up the manual page for that command.

The default behavior of export for the cluster versions which support collections is to export all available scopes/collections in a bucket.

The cbexport command is used to export data from Couchbase to various different formats. Each supported export format is a subcommand of the cbexport utility.

Operations (commands or sub-commands) which connect to a cluster are not supported during major cluster configuration changes.

For example, performing an import/export, making a backup or performing a restore whilst changing the TLS configuration/security settings is unsupported.

These types of changes (e.g. changing the TLS mode to strict) are not expected to be time consuming so it’s generally expected that operations should be started after completing the configuration change.

Please note that this does not include rebalances; operations may be performed during a rebalance. The reason for this distinction, is that major cluster configuration changes are generally quick, whilst rebalances for large data sets may be time consuming.

A manual page is available for each of the supported sources listed above.
