Thank you Varun. I’ve noted your request and will follow up with our team.

Can you share some more details around how you would expect to use the exported backups?

Hi sorry, I meant exporting an index, I would basically like to export the index to an object storage and move the data to another pinecone account using import from object storage. Is it possible to provide a timeline for the exporting of indexes?

I don’t have a timeline for this yet, but it’s something that I’m working to prioritise with our Product teams.
