Export Object Attachment Records

When Object, Profile and Permission Set or User information is exported, an Export Object Attachment Record is created for the export. When an export request is completed, you receive an email notification your export file is ready. The link in the notification opens the Export Object Attachment Record in Salesforce. Your download file is available under Notes & Attachments.
