Start a new export.
+The endpoint also accepts an `upload` param. This param is a hash that contains
+all the necessary information to upload the exported project to a web server or
+to any S3-compatible platform. At the moment we only support binary
+data file uploads to the final server.
+
+If the `upload` params is present, `upload[url]` param is required.

-Status can be one of `none`, `started`, or `finished`.
+Status can be one of `none`, `started`, `after_export_action` or `finished`. The
+`after_export_action` state represents that the export process has been completed successfully and
+the platform is performing some actions on the resulted file. For example, sending
+an email notifying the user to download the file, uploading the exported file
+to a web server, etc.
`_links` are only present when export has finished.
