Viewing and Loading Exports#
This section answers: “I exported a folder — how do I actually view it?”
There are two main workflows:
Local viewing (fastest to start): use the web app’s browser folder picker to load a single exported dataset folder.
Sharing (recommended): create an “exports root” with
datasets.jsonand host it (often on GitHub) so collaborators can load it easily.
Note
The web app has very detailed loading documentation in Data Loading in the Web App (All Paths). This section is the R-focused, export-folder-specific version.
Click-by-click guide for loading a local export folder (no server needed).
How to create an exports root + datasets.json, and how to share via GitHub or a static host.
Preflight checks (files, JSON, binary sanity) and common browser/CORS failure modes.
