FAQPage Schema
How do I convert a saved Pixie artefact to PDF or PNG?

The server-side exporter invokes the exporter API to convert one saved Pixie artefact into your chosen format, such as PDF or PNG, and writes the resulting bytes to disk for downloads and presentations.

What formats are supported for server-side artefact export?

Server-side artefact export supports converting single saved Pixie artefacts to PNG, SVG, PDF, XLSX, CSV, MP3, and other formats by invoking the exporter API to perform the format conversion.

Can I bulk export multiple Pixie artefacts at once?

Bulk export of multiple Pixie artefacts is not handled directly; the Skill routes bulk-export and export-run operations to their correct dedicated exporter paths, strictly processing only single-artefact conversions itself.

Why does the exporter not save unchanged copies or clipboard-only operations?

The exporter avoids unchanged copies and clipboard-only operations to enforce safe usage, ensuring that format conversion strictly produces a new file written to disk rather than duplicating data or holding it temporarily in memory.

Do I need a saved artefact before using the format conversion exporter?

Yes, you need one saved Pixie artefact available beforehand, because the exporter processes only pre-existing single artefacts and invokes the API to convert that specific saved item to the requested format.
