Exporting

Freeform includes 3 options for exporting (2 of which are Pro only):

Quick Export Pro

Freeform Pro's Quick Export feature displays inside the Submissions page of the Freeform control panel. Clicking the Quick Export button at the top of the page allows you to export all submissions for a given form, in your choice of CSV, Text, JSON or XML. You can then exclude whichever fields you don't want exported.

File Upload fields will export as a complete URL to the file if a public URL is specified for the Asset. If not, it will just export as the file name only (e.g. my-precious.gif).

Quick Export

Export Profiles Pro

Freeform Pro's Export Profiles feature allows admins to create more complex pre-defined export profiles that can be run by any user with proper permissions at any time. Options for export profiles are as follows:
