Download Export Output Files
After you run an export process, you can download output files from the database for use in another application or to send to a marketing effort processing house.
You have four options for downloading output files:
-
CSV: downloads a single output file containing all data in comma-separated value format.
-
XLSX: downloads a single output file containing all data in Microsoft Excel format.
-
Multiple files: splits downloaded output into multiple files based on the unique values of a selected field. For example, if you split by “Package code,” a separate output file is created for each package code included in the export.
-
Grouped files: creates output files with data grouped by field values as specified. For example, you can create a set of files broken out by region. To do this, include the State field in your export definition and then select to group by State for the output download. Create a group for each region and add the appropriate states to each group — for example, include FL, GA, SC, and NC in the Southeast region group and CT, MA, NH, and VT in the Northeast region group. This setup produces a file for each region and each file includes data for only the states included in its region.
