Exports project files as a .zip bundle. Generated bundle will be uploaded to an Amazon S3 bucket, which will be stored there for 1 month available to download. As the bundle is generated and uploaded you would get a response with the URL to the file. Requires Download files admin right.

There are two ways to group keys by filenames when you are exporting - either all keys to a single file per language or use the previously assigned filenames. <a href="https://developers.lokalise.com/docs/webhooks-guide" target="`_new`">Learn more</a>.
