Hi All,

We want to export all file attachments (not the library) so we can scan for PII and remediate/redact sensitive data,  
I can not find a way to bulk export documents (and even better, with associated record/ID)  
We dont want to build an API connector, yet, until we scan all files for issues.  
Appreciate any feedback/help.

Hi All, does anyone have any ideas? Do we need to build this via API to grab all documents attached to contact record? We will grab and delete as we process for PII.  
I understand why a vendor would ot provide this (i.e. too easy for them to leave to head to aotehr tool), but there is growing PII/GRC policy coming which will require us (and our clients) to report on PII so we want to build it now.  
Thanks
