Export Backorders
GET/api/v2/inventory-allocations/backorders/export
Downloads the backorder queue as an XLSX or CSV file.
orders:readGrant this scope to your token under Settings → Developer → Personal Access Tokens.
Uses the same status scope, search, and grouped filter pipeline as List Backorders, so the export always matches what the user sees in the UI for the active status tab.
Scopes:
all— export every backorder in the current status tab, ignoring filters/search/sortfiltered(default) — honor all active filters, search, and sortcurrent_page— just the page currently rendered by the list viewselected— the IDs passed via theidsquery param (comma-separated)
Columns:
Pass columns as a comma-separated list of keys to limit the export to the visible list view columns (in request order). Omit columns to export every available column.
Response:
Returns a binary download — application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet for xlsx, text/csv for csv. Filename pattern: backorders-YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS.{format}.
Each backorder row also carries in_transit_stock (inbound stock in motion across warehouses), alongside other_warehouse_stock. Both are populated in the CSV/XLSX export.

Response Headers
Unauthenticated — the bearer token is missing, revoked, expired, or malformed. Never retry automatically; fix the credential. See the Errors guide.
Forbidden — the token lacks a required scope, the endpoint is not available to API tokens, or the user behind the token lacks the permission. A human must adjust the token scopes or user permissions; do not retry.
Rate limited — platform limit is 1,000 requests/min; individual tokens may carry lower limits. Honor the Retry-After header before retrying. See the Rate Limits guide.
