If you are a global administrator tasked with migrating data out of the Barracuda Cloud Archiving Service (BCAS), you already know the pain of the native export process. Exporting years of data usually requires splitting searches into smaller timeframes (like front-half and back-half of the year), initiating the export, and then manually clicking through dozens of 4.7GB chunk files to download them.
When you are migrating terabytes of data, doing this manually is not just tedious—it’s prone to human error.
To speed up this migration project, you can use Vanilla JavaScript directly in your browser’s Developer Console to automate the UI interactions. Below are two scripts: one to automate queuing up the export searches, and a second to automate downloading the resulting PST files.
Disclaimer: These scripts interact with the DOM elements of the Barracuda web interface. If Barracuda updates their UI, these scripts may need adjustments. Always test with a small batch first, and use these at your own risk.
Part 1: Automating the Export Queuing
The first step in the migration is triggering the export tasks. Instead of manually entering date ranges, clicking search, opening the tools menu, and configuring the export window for every single block of time, this script does it for you.
How it works:
It loops through a predefined array of names and date ranges. For each item, it inputs the start and end dates, clicks “Search”, waits for the grid to load, opens the “Export Messages” tool, names the export, selects the “4.7GB – DVD” chunk size, and submits the job.
Instructions:
- Log into your Barracuda Cloud Archiving Service and navigate to the Search tab.
- Ensure your search criteria rows are set exactly to:
- Row 1:
Email|Date|on or after - Row 2:
Email|Date|on or before
- Row 1:
- Press F12 (or
Ctrl+Shift+Jon Windows /Cmd+Option+Jon Mac) to open the browser’s Developer Tools, and navigate to the Console tab. - Modify the
exportTasksarray in the script below to fit your desired date ranges, paste it into the console, and press Enter.
(async function automateExports() {
// List of all your export tasks. Modify this array as needed for your migration.
const exportTasks = [
{ name: "2018 - Back Half", start: "2018-06-01 00:00:00 -0500", end: "2018-12-31 00:00:00 -0500" },
{ name: "2019 - Front Half", start: "2019-01-01 00:00:00 -0500", end: "2019-05-31 00:00:00 -0500" },
{ name: "2019 - Back Half", start: "2019-06-01 00:00:00 -0500", end: "2019-12-31 00:00:00 -0500" },
{ name: "2020 - Front Half", start: "2020-01-01 00:00:00 -0500", end: "2020-05-31 00:00:00 -0500" },

return;
}
// 2. Click Search

if (nameInput) {

console.log("%cAll export tasks have been queued successfully!", 'color: green; font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px;');
})();Note: Do not click around the page while this script is running, as it relies on interacting with the dynamic menus.
Part 2: Automating the Downloads
Once your tasks finish retrieving and exporting the messages on the backend, you are left with a massive list of tasks on the Tasks tab. If an export contains 50GB of data, clicking through 12 different 4.7GB chunk files manually is exhausting.
This script iterates through the tasks you manually select. It opens the download prompt, clicks every single PST link with a 60-second delay between clicks to prevent browser throttling, marks the link visually as “In Progress”, closes the window, and moves to the next selected task.
Instructions:
- Navigate to the Tasks tab in Barracuda.
- Check the boxes next to the fully exported tasks you are ready to download.
- Open the Developer Console (F12).
- Paste the script below and hit Enter.

The first time this script triggers multiple downloads, your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge) will likely block it to protect you from spam. Look at your URL bar for a small prompt asking: “Allow mas.barracudanetworks.com to download multiple files?” You must click Allow, otherwise, the browser will silently block the rest of your files. The script specifically waits 60 seconds between clicks to maintain a stable connection, but you still need to allow the initial multi-download permission.
Migrating email archives is rarely a fun process, but a little JavaScript can save you hours of manual clicking!
