          Use filters to determine what to export during the export of topics

          While exporting all or a list of topics into BCF, the API gives a filter option to export or not to export comments, attachments, pins & hyperlinks.

          Filter: ?attachments=false&comments=true&hyperlinks=false&pins=true

          eg: https://api-stage.bimplus.net/v2/bimplus/issues/export/bcf?attachments=false Here everything will be exported except attachments.
