right file.

02

03

Pick JSON — not HTML

On the Confirm screen, set Format to JSON. Under Connections, select Followers and Following only. Deselect everything else.

04

Most people miss step 3. If you pick HTML, the file won’t load here — you’ll need to re-export with JSON selected. Why this is the safest method →
