## Remarks

- Requires the vault right `trigger_data_export` and the Reporting module in the license.
- Fails if the data set is disabled, and with "Not found." for an unknown ID.
- The call only records the time of the request (returned as `last_manual_execution_triggered`
  by [GetDataSetAuxiliaryExecutionControlState](https://developer.m-files.com/APIs/gRPC-API/Reference/MFiles.IRPCExportedDataSets/GetDataSetAuxiliaryExecutionControlState/index.md));
  the export process notices it and runs the export. Follow the progress with
  [GetDataSetExportingStatusBasic](https://developer.m-files.com/APIs/gRPC-API/Reference/MFiles.IRPCExportedDataSets/GetDataSetExportingStatusBasic/index.md).
- Cancel a running export with the administration service
  ([CancelExportedDataSetExecution](https://developer.m-files.com/APIs/gRPC-API/Reference/MFiles.IRPCExportedDataSetsAdmin/CancelExportedDataSetExecution/index.md)).
