Export process data

Export process data to an external file. After you choose your export type, you can choose to export data as a CSV, XES, or an MXML file. You can also choose to export as a zip file, and enter the delimiter to use. If you choose to export cases (as opposed to events), you'll see a list of statistics you can choose to export.

Choose export options

  1. On the left menu in the open view, select Export.

  2. In the Export as dropdown menu, select Events or Cases.

  3. If you select Cases, also de-select the statistics you don't want to include in your export in the Statistics to export list.

  4. If you want to export as a zip file, place a check in the Export as ZIP checkbox.

  5. If you want to use a delimiter other than the default comma, enter it in the Delimiter field.

  6. Select Export.
