Exporting Form Data Manually

Exporting Form Data Manually

While you can automate data delivery via Form Connectors, you can also manually export records directly from the platform.

There are two ways to do this, depending on your needs: Single Entry Export (for detailed, templated PDFs/Docs) and Bulk Export (for raw data or mass document generation).


Exporting a Single Entry

Use the Feed View when you need to export a specific record using a custom layout or a Generic PDF.

How to Export

  1. Navigate to Data Entries > Feed View.
  2. Locate the specific record (use filters if necessary).
  3. Click Export Data to open the options drawer.

Configuration Options

OptionDescription
Export AsChoose between the Generic PDF or a custom Word/Excel template.
Export as PDFIf using a Word/Excel template, toggle this to convert the final output to PDF.
Clickable ImagesMakes images in the file clickable links. Note: Links will show the platform’s domain.
High-ResolutionIncreases resolution from 96ppi to 150ppi. Best for printing, but results in larger files.
Anonymize DataMasks fields marked as “Personal Data” in the Form Designer for privacy.
Disable Timestamp/CodePrevents the system from adding yyyyMMdd or random strings to your filename.
Show ErrorsDiagnostic Tool: Highlights formula syntax errors within your template.

Once you click Export, wait for the notification pop-up to download your file. If you miss it, you can always find your file under the Notifications tab in the side menu.


Exporting Multiple Entries (Bulk)

Use the Table View to export large datasets for analysis or to generate documents for multiple entries at once.

How to Export

  1. Navigate to Data Entries > Table View.
  2. Select your Form and Form Version from the dropdowns.
  3. Check the boxes for the individual records you need, or select all.
  4. Click the Manage Data button.
