What is PortalData Export
Based on the event added on a package/shipment PortalData can be configured to trigger an export.
In the background, all events are filtered and if one matches an Export Profile then the attached Gateway is triggered with the wanted data.
The criteria for a match can be anything found on a shipment. E.g InstallationId, Event Types or even Shipment specific data
An export can be triggered when an event is added, or at a interval.
Interval is normally used if one need to sumerize information based on the period of the intervall. Max 24 hours
