- Data Selection: Ensure that the document IDs are accurate and accessible to avoid errors during the export process.
- Category Filtering: Use document category IDs to refine the export results, focusing on specific subsets of documents if needed.

- Combining Rows: When combining by external ID, ensure that the external ID field is consistently populated across documents to achieve the desired output.
