There are two things to do with the export servlet:

  • You can use it to export data from Open-Xchange Server
    • Example: Exporting you Contacts as vCards.
  • you can extend it to export new formats
    • Example: Currently, the CSV format can only be used to export contacts. You can extend it to export appointments.


Exporting data using existing exporters is done using the API, as explained in HTTP API.
