You can export your collections from the Qdrant application by creating and downloading snapshots:

Web interface

3. Click on the collection and then go to the Snapshots tab.
4. Click Take snapshot.
5. In the row of the created snapshot, click → Download.

API

1. Get the application’s public endpoint.

2. Create the collection’s snapshot:

   curl -X POST \
     'https://<public_URL>/collections/<collection_name>/snapshots' \
     --header 'api-key: <API_key>'
   

   The output contains the snapshot’s name:

   {
     "time": 0.002,
     "status": "ok",
     "result": {
       "name": "<snapshot_name>",
       ...
     }
   }
   

3. Get the snapshot:

   curl -X GET \
     'https://<public_URL>/collections/<collection_name>/snapshots/<snapshot_name>' \
     --header 'api-key: <API_key>'
