Export options
Before starting an export, there are a few final options to choose from to customize your export.
File type
We support .csv files but we're considering adding support for Excel files and JSON formats.
File names
You can choose to customise the filename for the export. This is particularly helpful when sending the file to another destination.
We provide placeholder support for dynamic content, e.g. date and time.
