  title: FullStory Segments Export Batch Import Users API
  description: 'The FullStory Segments Export API provides an asynchronous workflow for downloading captured event data from FullStory. Developers can initiate export jobs to aggregate segment data, query for the status of running jobs, and retrieve download URLs for completed exports. Two types of segment data are available for export: individuals matching a segment and events performed by those individuals. This API is useful for integrating FullStory behavioral data into external analytics pipelines and data warehouses.'
