Export/Import does not work for saved data in pages

Hi,

When I export a newly created page with only saved data (page is not published) then the page is imported also with the saved data. ✅

But when I do some changes to already published page and trying to export this page. This page is imported with the latest published data and the saved changes are missing. ❌

Bug or Feature?

Is there any other way how to export page with saved data?

Thank you

Petr

Hi Scott,

Thank you very much for this tool!

Unfortunately it was an urgent need of my customer, and I didn't expect that export of saved data will not work (I haven't found a single mention of it in Optimizely guids and it seems to me as a big deal!)

Some CMS builds I've worked on can have hundreds of thousands or many times that. Due to this the export tool only handles exporting what's needed such as a created item or a publish version so there's only one item. Else with historical exporting if there's 20, 30, 40 ui version it's the content * version which will be a lot. Maybe an option would have been nice but at this point this is a very old tool in it's core structure.
