HOW
IT WORKS
RyExport downloads your data from Ryver.com using the public APIs used by the Ryver website.
Exports raw JSON files for processing by other applications
Converts Ryver data to human-readable web pages for offline reading
Counts the number of items exported and provides a live display during the export
Topics
This example shows the topics exported from a single Ryver Team, which only has two topics.
The topics are exported as web pages, with a different set of pages for each team or forum.
The pages include the formatting, emoji, and images that are included in Ryver.
Data is also exported in JSON format which allows the topics to be read by other software.

Helping you with SOX compliance
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act mandates the preservation and safe-keeping of electronic documentation. RyExport can help you with SOX compliance by providing a way to extract data from Ryver. With many teams using Ryver to replace emails, the archiving of conversations in Ryver teams and forums is essential.
RyExport will extract key data from Ryver for SOX or audit archives.
After extraction you will need to move the files produced by RyExport to a centralised SOX compliant tamper-proof and encrypted data store for retention.
The data extracted by RyExport can also be used for auditing, data-mining, eDiscovery, searching and analysis.
