Description

The export does not respect INCLUDED_PROPS for e.g. "client_id" when export_ids is false.

Expectation

The expectation is and I believe it used to be the case that client id's were preserved when running the export without ids, but specifying: "clients": [ "client_secret", "client_id" ] in INCLUDED_PROPS.

This will allow retaining of client ids for disaster recovery situations and still allow testing restores, since exporting ids in general will cause a failure when restoring to a test tenant.

Reproduction

1. export with included props set to "clients": [ "client_secret", "client_id" ] and export_ids set to false
2. client_id will be missing from the export data

Hi @KurtMar ,

Thank you so much for reaching out and sharing your use case with us.

client_id serves as the primary client identifier, which is why it isn't exported by default. However, we definitely want to make sure you can get the data you need!

You can achieve this by using the AUTH0_EXPORT_IDENTIFIERS setting. Here is a quick example of how to configure your setup:

  "INCLUDED_PROPS": {
    "clients": [ "client_secret" ]
  },
  "AUTH0_EXPORT_IDENTIFIERS": true

Please let us know if this approach works for you or if there is anything else we can help with. Thanks
