Export Your Data

Download all your data as a JSON file to back up or migrate.

Overview

The full data export gives you everything stored in your TeeckIn account. This includes your personal data and all billing entities you own. Use it for backups, migrating to another service, or restoring your account.

Note

This exports all your data, not just time entries. For exporting specific reports, see the Reports export feature instead.

What's Included

The export includes:

Your Account

Profile (name, currency)
Settings (timer reminders, quick start shortcuts)
Business info (name, VAT, IBAN, BIC)
Address information

Your Personal Data

Categories and topics
Time entries with notes and checklists
Clients and invoices
Transactions and attachments (metadata)

What's NOT Included

Warning

For security reasons, some data is intentionally excluded from exports:

SMTP credentials — Email configuration must be re-entered after importing
Agent credentials — OAuth secrets must be regenerated after import for security
Attachment files — Only metadata is exported; actual files cannot be restored
Two-factor authentication — Must be reconfigured for security
Other team members' accounts — You can only export your own data
