# Poll Project Files Export

`GET /projects/{projectId}/files/exports/{exportId}`

Retrieves the state of the export operation. 

 Once the state is marked as `done`, you can download the generated `zip` file using the following endpoint: [Download Exported Project Files](../api/Public-API.v1-fv.html#/operations/DownloadFile).

> [!WARNING] 
> The export ID has a time-to-live (TTL) of 20 minutes, starting from when the export operation was initiated (not when the underlying async operation completes). If the TTL expires, this endpoint will return a `404 Not Found` error. Ensure you poll and download the export within this timeframe.
