The openlayer export command downloads monitoring data from an inference pipeline for a specified time period. It supports flexible ways to specify date ranges and optional filters to refine the exported dataset.

​
Usage

openlayer export [inference_pipeline_id] [start] [end]
This will fetch your monitoring data from the inference pipeline and place a dataset.json and config.json file in ./openlayer-exports/{pipeline_name}_{start}_{end}.

​
Date ranges

You can specify time ranges in multiple ways: 
# Date ranges (inclusive of end date)
openlayer export my-pipeline --from 2025-08-01 --to 2025-08-10
openlayer export my-pipeline --from "Aug 1, 2025" --to "Aug 10, 2025"
openlayer export my-pipeline --from 2025-08-01T10:00:00 --to 2025-08-10T18:00:00

# Unix timestamps (legacy mode)
openlayer export my-pipeline --from 1724659200 --to 1725340800

# Relative ranges
openlayer export my-pipeline --last 7d
openlayer export my-pipeline --last 2h30m

# Preset ranges
openlayer export my-pipeline --range this-week

# Legacy positional arguments (still supported)
openlayer export my-pipeline 1724659200 1725340800

​
Filters

You can refine the exported dataset using --filter flags or a JSON file.

​
Simple syntax

# Numerical comparisons
openlayer export my-pipeline --filter 'confidence_score>=0.8'
openlayer export my-pipeline --filter 'age>25' --filter 'score<=100'

# String equality
openlayer export my-pipeline --filter 'status=active' --filter 'region!=test'

# Array/list operations
openlayer export my-pipeline --filter 'region in [US,CA,UK]'
openlayer export my-pipeline --filter 'tags contains any [prod,staging]'

​
JSON file (advanced)

For more complex filters, pass a JSON file: 
openlayer export my-pipeline --filters-file filters.json

​
Flags
