Export your posts

Download every post — drafts, published, and archived — as one JSON file.

Your writing is yours. Under Dashboard > Settings > Export posts, choose Download posts to get a vibecms-export-<date>.json file containing the whole blog. The tab is owner-only; editors don’t see it.

What’s in the file

The JSON carries schemaVersion: 2, the site identity (id, name, slug, description, default SEO fields), and a posts array. Each post includes:

  • Its status (draft, published, or archived), slug, title, excerpt, tags, SEO fields, canonical URL, cover asset, presentation settings, and timestamps
  • contentMarkdown — the current tip
  • publishedVersion — a snapshot of the version live on the blog, when one exists
  • draftTip — a snapshot of the newest saved version, when it differs from the published one
  • mediaAssets — metadata and /media-assets/<id> URLs for each image the published and draft tips reference

What’s not in the file

  • Image files. Only metadata and URLs are exported; download the binaries separately if you need them.
  • Version history. The export has the published version and the current tip, not every past version.
  • Subscribers and site configuration beyond the fields above.

The export is a backup and portability format — there is no matching import. To move content elsewhere, render it or hand the Markdown to your next system.
