Exporting data from eLabJournal is an important function to ensure that your data can be archived on your local server. eLabJournal supports different options to export project information. You can export data in a PDF, HTML, JSON or XML format but you can generate your own export format using our API.


To export data from your ELN, navigate to ELN export in the File Storage tab and click Select files to Export




Next, browse to the project you want to export and click on the Export button.





The project is then added to the list of projects to export. In this way you can add multiple projects and once you have added the project(s) you want to export, you can click Start Export.





In the next step, you can choose to export the data as PDF, HTML, JSON or as XML file. Click on Export to start the export process. When exporting a project a ZIP file is created that contains all projects, including all contained studies and experiments in that project as well as all linked data files. 



The generated export file will be added to the ELN export files list, from where you can download, remove or see the export file information.




Note that generated export files will automatically be removed from the system within 48 hours after the file has been created
