Exporting Databases in Wix

Now, let me show you how to export a database list information here in Wix using Wix code. So guys, first to turn on your tools, you need to go your Wix code tools, turn on developer tools. Make sure that's checked on. Obviously, if you have a database in here, you already know that. So if you come down here to database, I've already filled out one of my pieces of information here. And I just want to show you where you go to export that information, including importing that information.

So if you would like to import information into your database or export information, you simply go over here to import export. A lot of people did not know this, so you click that and then you can import data from a file. So this can be from a Google spreadsheet or an Excel spreadsheet and, or you could export data to a file right here. You could export all, okay? And then this is where you could export your data.

You could see right now you could export into a CSV file. So you could either export all of your data, including the hidden fields. You get export filter data, or you could export collection schema. And what that means is you export only the structure of this collection without any data, meaning you export the, the structure of what this database looks like as compared to filter data where you a filtered the data you actually export in your collection. So you could filter it based off of fields and what you want to download. So that's how you export the data in your Wix database, and you would simply click export. And then just like that client database CSV is export it in, download it onto my computer. And then I only have one field here and you can see, okay. Yeah. Well, we don't need any of this junk. Of course, Excel is running out of date here.

But you can see just like that. We get all the form fields it's real easy, real convenient, real simple to do. And now we have all of our information right here. You will notice the image, the profile image is exported as a file link and it is not the actual image. That is a bit of a pain right now in Wix, but I do believe they are looking to finish that and fulfill that and fix that issue. But you can see that as a nice, simple easy downloadable exportable file. And it provides you all the information necessary that you want, or that you filter based off of what you're looking for.
