# data export resume

Resume a bulk export job that you previously started. Uses Bulk API 2.0.

## Description for data export resume

When the original "data export bulk" command times out, it displays a job ID. To see the status and get the results of the bulk export, run this command by either passing it the job ID or using the --use-most-recent flag to specify the most recent bulk export job.

Using either `--job-id` or `--use-most-recent` will properly resolve to the correct org where the bulk job was started based on the cached data by "data export bulk".
