I have created a new instance(Istanbul) and there is now sample data. How to obtain some sample data after the instance is already created?

Hi Polina,



Is this a personal developer instance or one created for your organization (typically with a dev and prod instance pair)?



Second question - is there some specific sample data you would like (users, incidents, test plans)? Depending on the size, I can always attach a few XML files here for you to import.


I have the same request. I am using a personal developer instance and would like to get a quick idea of the data captured: users, incidents, etc. Is the default output XML or can it be JSON or CSV?


Hi Phil,



You can output records in any number of formats. XML is the recommened one as it preserves all the attributes (sys_ids, dates/times, and other meta data) on each record.

Trying to download a few records and the export to csv hangs on "Export


starting". The same was true when I tried to export XML...
