# Consul KV Export
|
|
|
|
Command: `consul kv export`
|
|
|
|
The `kv export` command is used to retrieve KV pairs for the given
|
|
prefix from Consul's KV store, and write a JSON representation to
|
|
stdout. This can be used with the command "consul kv import" to move entire
|
|
trees between Consul clusters.
