# Export to file

Start by [filtering](/products/catalog/filters-advanced.md) out all the products you wish to export to an Excel file. All the columns you are currently seeing at the grid will be exported to a file, so if you do not need information from all the columns set up a [view](/products/catalog/system-views/custom-views.md) first. 

{% hint style="info" %}
There is a maximum limit of 100 columns and 1 500 000 cells.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Custom views can be saved and shared.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
The generated file will be in .xlsx format.
{% endhint %}

Then go to Actions and click on "*Export to file*".

If action is succeded you will see a confirmation.

Depending on the information volume, this may take some time to be exported. When finished you will see a notification in [Action Center](/dashboard/dashboard/user-menu-and-action-center.md). This is also the place where you can download the file from. To do so click on the "*Download file*" button.

To get to the details (or/and check for errors) click on the "*Three dots"* menu, and choose "*See details"* option.

Check the Action details to make sure that all the products are exported properly.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://usermanual.ergonode.com/products/catalog/batch-actions/export-to-file.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
