Documented features match

  • No documented item matched. Not documented
  • Product documentation (partial, the article describes the broader feature or mentions this in passing): Export databases in the admin center, checked 2026-10-02. To view the history, go to the Operations page in the Business Central administration center. Note: Shows history now lives on the Operations page; the retirement of the export history page is not stated explicitly. API side deprecation is documented in the Admin Center API database export article.

Docs checked on 2026-10-02: the match is against Microsoft's what's new pages for the wave as they were on that date. Microsoft keeps filling the documentation, so "no documented item" can go stale.
