# ExportAudioMatchDatabase

Exports an audio match database to a file, so that it can be imported into a different training database.

Type: asynchronous

Parameter | Description | Required
--- | --- | ---
`database` | The name of the database to export. | Yes
`dbpath` | The path of the file to create, containing the data. Specify an absolute path, or a path relative to the Media Server executable file. Media Server must be permitted to write to the path (see AllowedOutputDirectoryCSVs). | Yes
`includemetadata` | A Boolean value (default true) that specifies whether to export custom metadata. | No

## Example

The following example exports the database named "music":

    /action=ExportAudioMatchDatabase&database=music
                                    &dbpath=./exported/music.dat

## Response

This action is asynchronous, so Media Server always returns success accompanied by a token. You can use this token with the QueueInfo action to retrieve the status of your request.
