There are two method available to export your data in Fulcrum. If you are looking for a complete data set, we recommend using the Exporter. However, if your aim is to get more granular data, then the Data Downloader is more appropriate, as it allows you to filter down your data before exporting. Let's review both options in detail.
Exporter
The exporter is a more all-inclusive exporter that has limited filter options. You can access the exporter three different ways:
From the Side Navigation menu. This takes you to the main Exports page which lists your export history.
From the App List, by clicking the download icon. This initiates a new export, automatically selecting that App in the Exporter options.
From the page header, under the '+' sign dropdown. This also initiates a new export, but with no options selected.
From the App list view, the Export button is only available for apps that already have data/records available.
The main exporter has some additional customizable settings that the record editor data downloader does not currently have. Like exporting full history, including the Raw GPS data, and the ability to export the photos.
Exporter Data Formats
You can export your data to any of the following format types:
CSV (.csv)
Microsoft Excel (.xlsx)
Esri File Geodatabase (.gdb)
Esri Shapefile (.shp)

Data Downloader
The other way of obtaining your data is from within the Data Downloader for a specific app. This option will provide you with an export file that contains just the filtered data. Note that the data downloader has a download size limit to 5GB in file size and/or 100,000 media files. So if you are looking to omit certain columns or filter what records are included, this export option works best.
