Add configuration options for export

**Problem**
When working with config, the error messages could be more descriptive.

**Suggestion**
Improve error handling and add detailed error messages.

**Context**
This would help with debugging and maintenance.

No file, entry point, or test is named. Start by locating the configuration export path and its current error handling, then determine which configuration options and failure cases are in scope. Done means export-related configuration is supported and errors provide more descriptive debugging information.
