Export & Delete Customer Data

Export & Delete Customer Data

Once you have set up your UCI (Unique Chatter Identifier), you can export or delete a user personal data via API to comply with data protection requests (GDPR).

📌

Prerequisites: You must have a UCI configured and data mapping must be active before using these features. See Recognize Customer Data.


Data Export

Export a user conversation data to your AWS S3 bucket using their UCI value.

Setup

  1. Set up your Daily Conversations Extract by following the AWS S3 Bucket configuration.
  2. Use the Data Export API to initiate the export.

How it works

Once completed:

  • A folder named chatter_data_exports is created in your AWS S3 bucket.
  • Subfolders are named after the UCI value.
  • Data export files follow the naming pattern: date_time_conversation_export.csv.
Data Export Example

Example: For UCI key my_uci and value 111, two files exported on October 6, 2023, would appear

CSV format

  • Column separator: Comma
  • String delimiter: Double quote

📌

Storage Information:

  • Files stored in ViaSay AWS account are automatically deleted after 40 days.
  • Files stored in a customer AWS account are managed by the customer.

Data Deletion

Process data deletion requests using the UCI and the Data Deletion API.

How it works

  1. Navigate to Settings > User Data > Export or delete customer data.
  2. Select Delete and submit an API request with the user UCI value.
  3. Once processed, the conversation data will be permanently deleted from ViaSay servers.
