Using the export feature introduced in edu-sharing 5.0, records of any type can be exported as CSV or JSON files for different search queries.
The CSV format is best suited for analysis, e.g. for diagrams, because it can be imported by common spreadsheet programs.
The JSON format is recommended if other software or programs want to further process the data.
In CSV files, a loss of information may occur in multi-value fields, which does not occur in JSON due to the element structure.
Performing an export
To create an export, log in as system administrator and switch to the admin tools. Then select the Browser option.
Here you will find an option "Download as file" in addition to the possibility to export the data as a list.
After selecting the option, further setting options appear.
In order to make the start easier, we have provided examples of typical exports in the area below.
