Runs as an async job: the request waits inline up to `Prefer: wait=N` seconds (default 20, max 55) and returns `200 { data }` with the download URL if the file is ready in time; otherwise it returns `202` with a job envelope to poll at `GET /jobs/{id}` (or delivers it to `callback_url`). The URL expires 24 hours after completion. ## OpenAPI ````yaml legal/openapi.json POST /v1/exports openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Croma Legal API version: 1.0.0 description: >- Read-only access to your organization's litigation portfolio in Croma Legal: cases (processes), actuaciones, defendants, portfolio analytics and bulk exports.
