# Export your leads

Download your leads as CSV or Excel, choose columns and periods, export only winners, or schedule exports by email.

## Export leads

1. On the **Leads** page or a campaign's **Leads** tab, click **Export / Import**.
2. On the **Export** tab, choose the **File format**: **Comma-separated** (CSV) or **.xlsx spreadsheet** (Excel).
3. Under **Recipients (separate with ',' for multiple)**, enter the email addresses that should get the file.
4. Under **Export columns**, choose **All columns**, **Selected columns** or, on a campaign, **Campaign columns** (the fields of that campaign).
5. With **Selected columns**, move the columns you want from **Unselected fields** to **Selected fields**.
6. Optional: choose a **Period (leave empty for all leads)**.
7. On a campaign, you can also tick **Export winners only** or **Filter based on participation**.
8. Click **Export**.

"The file is being exported and will be sent to your email shortly." The email has a download link that works for 48 hours.

## Period and participation

By default, the **Period** filters on when the lead was created, that is, when the person first signed up in your account. On a campaign, tick **Filter based on participation** to filter on when people took part in this campaign instead. Use it to include people who signed up earlier and came back in the period.

On a campaign, the period uses the campaign's time zone.

## Columns you can include

Besides the form fields, you can include columns such as **Created At**, **IP Address**, **Channel**, **Prize**, **Prize Discount Code**, **Permission Text**, **Double Opt-In Confirmation Date**, **Participation dates** and **Drawing tickets**. You must select at least one column.

## Schedule exports

To get a fresh file regularly, for example every Monday:

1. Set up the export as above.
2. Turn on **Save as scheduled export**.
3. Choose the **Timezone** and the **Export generation time**.
4. Choose the **Send frequency**: **Daily**, **Weekly** (pick the **Day of the week**) or **Monthly** (pick the **Day of the month**).
5. Turn on **Only on weekdays** if you want to skip weekends.
6. Click **Create**.

A scheduled export has no **Period** setting. Your scheduled exports are on the **Scheduled exports** tab, for example "Daily at 08:00" or "Weekly on Monday at 08:00". Open a schedule's **More actions** menu and click **Edit** to change it (then **Save**), or **Delete** to remove it (**Delete scheduled export**). Click **Add schedule** to make a new one.

## Keep exported data safe

An export contains personal data. Store the file safely, share it only with those who need it, and delete it when you are done. To send leads to your email tool automatically, use an integration instead. See [How integrations work](https://scratcher.io/help/integrations/how-integrations-work).
