Hi @dalibor.kundrat

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

Can you please let me know what version of [Auth0 Deploy CLI](https://github.com/auth0/auth0-deploy-cli) are you attempting the export on? If you are not on the latest version ( v. 8.18), I recommend upgrading and then trying the export one more time.

Best regards,  
Gerald

Hi @dalibor.kundrat

Thank you for checking and confirming!

Please look over the scopes of your M2M application one more time, in case there has been any change to the scopes that might be causing this issue.

Additionally, it might also be worth using `AUTH0_EXCLUDED_CONNECTIONS` to export everything else and see if it works that way as a workaround. More information can be found in the following:

- [Exclude single resources by ID](https://auth0.com/docs/deploy-monitor/deploy-cli-tool/exclude-resources-from-management#exclude-single-resources-by-id:~:text=No-,Exclude%20single%20resources%20by%20ID,-Some%20resource%20types)
- [A0deploy export fails with Problem exporting databases](https://community.auth0.com/t/a0deploy-export-fails-with-problem-exporting-databases/186821)

Let me know if this helped!  
Gerald
