How to Get Your Grok Data
Follow these steps to download your Grok conversations and import them into What Does Grok Know?
Step 1: Open Grok
Navigate to x.com/i/grok in your browser and make sure you are logged in to your X (formerly Twitter) account.
Step 2: Request Your Data
xAI provides data export functionality in compliance with GDPR and data portability rights. To request your data:
- Go to your X account settings
- Navigate to "Your account" → "Download an archive of your data"
- Request your data archive which includes Grok conversations
- Wait for X to prepare your archive (this can take 24-48 hours)
- Download the archive when the email notification arrives
Alternative: If you have direct access to the Grok API or have previously saved your chat data as JSON, you can use that file directly. The expected format is the standard Grok conversation JSON export.
Step 3: Find the Grok Chats File
Once you have downloaded and extracted your data archive, look for the Grok conversations file. It is typically named grok-chats.json or similar and contains your conversation history in JSON format.
Step 4: Import Into the App
Go to the home page and either drag-and-drop your JSON file onto the upload area or click to browse and select it. The app will parse your data entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server.
Step 5: Explore Your Brain
After parsing is complete, you will see a summary of your imported data. Click "Explore Your Brain" to enter the 3D neural network visualization and start discovering patterns in your conversations.
Supported File Format
The app accepts JSON files containing Grok conversation data. The expected structure is an array of conversation objects, each containing messages with sender roles, content, and timestamps. Both the official xAI export format and common API response formats are supported.
