Export entries and collections from Statamic to a variety of formats including XLSX, CSV, HTML and more.

Features

Get your entries and collections ready in the format you need. Currently, we support the following formats:

  • XLSX: Ideal for detailed data analysis and reporting in Excel.
  • CSV: Perfect for data import/export with other systems.
  • TSV: A tab-separated format, offering an alternative to CSV.
  • ODS: For users of OpenDocument spreadsheet applications.
  • XLS: Compatible with older versions of Excel.
  • HTML: Web-friendly format, easily convertible to PDF with online tools.

Why no PDF you ask? Well, we're working on it. But for now, you can use the HTML format and convert it to PDF using a variety of tools available online.

We tried to use the best human-readable representation for each fieldtype. For example, the Entries fieldtype will be represented as a comma separated list of entry titles instead of multiple entry IDs.

Supported Fieldtypes

So, there are quite a few fieldtypes available in Statamic. We're supporting all of them, but:

  • We do not support custom fieldtypes (yet). There will be a way to extend the functionality to support custom fieldtypes in the future.
  • However, if your custom fieldtypes extend one of the default fieldtypes, it should work just fine.
  • The fieldtypes \Statamic\Fieldtypes\Hidden, \Statamic\Fieldtypes\Revealer, \Statamic\Fieldtypes\Html and \Statamic\Fieldtypes\Spacer are excluded by default because they don't contain any data.
