How to export your Aircall data

Last verified: 2026-10-09 · Menu names change between plans and versions; check the vendor documentation below, and we confirm exact steps with you once you qualify.

Short answer

Aircall (cloud phone system) holds call logs, recordings and notes. You run the export yourself, from the app or through its API, after removing personal and confidential details. Nothing leaves your company until you approve it.

Export from the app

  1. Step 1

    Access Call History

    Log in to the Aircall Dashboard and select Call History from the left-hand menu to view records.

  2. Step 2

    Apply historical filters

    Choose your date range (up to 6 months for Essentials, 12 months for Professional) and phone lines to include in the view.

  3. Step 3

    Execute export

    Click Export in the lower-right corner; for data older than 12 months, you must contact Aircall support or use the Analytics+ add-on.

  4. Step 4

    Check the file before sharing

    Open a sample of the export, confirm the date range and record count, and flag anything personal or confidential. Don't send anything yet — we review the package together first.

Export through the API

  1. Step 1

    Create a read-only key

    In Dashboard → Integrations → API Keys, create an API token or app with read-only scopes. Keep it inside your company; never send it to SourceX.

  2. Step 2

    Use the Analytics API

    Submit a request to POST /analytics/exports for a specific report type like CALLS_HISTORY to receive a presigned CSV download URL (requires Analytics+).

  3. Step 3

    Pull history in batches

    Page through records by date range, respecting rate limits. Save raw JSON to your own storage. Large histories can take several days.

Plan limits and formats#

  • Limits and formats depend on your plan and are confirmed with you after qualification.

What to leave out#

  • Names, emails, phone numbers and addresses of customers and staff
  • Passwords, API keys, tokens and other credentials
  • Payment card and bank details
  • Attachments you haven't reviewed (they often hold IDs or contracts)
  • Records covered by client NDAs, privilege or contracts that limit reuse
  • Anything you mark confidential, such as pricing or strategy

Terms to check first#

  • Your content is usually yours, but plan terms can limit bulk export, API use or automated access.
  • Check whether your plan includes the export or API features you need before starting.
  • Respect API rate limits; large exports may need to run in batches over several days.
  • Don't share admin logins. You run the export yourself, with our guidance.
