Export data
Overview
Administrators can easily export data from any object or field using the data export tool. The data is exported as a CSV file.
There are a number of reasons why you might need to export data from Skedulo. For example:
- To create a copy of data for backup purposes;
- To import data from Skedulo into another system of record;
- Because data quality initiatives may require the mass manipulation of data;
- Because changes in business operations may require the mass manipulation of data.
Create an export task
To export your data from Skedulo, you must first create an export task.
To create an export task:
- On the Data import/export page, click Create Task.
- From the task menu, select Export.
