Add configuration options for export

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

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

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

Start by locating the helpers involved in export and reading the existing error-handling paths. The issue does not name files, entry points, configuration keys, or tests, so first identify where export options and helper errors are implemented. Done means the desired configuration options and more descriptive errors are defined and covered by the relevant tests.
