Exports#
The Exports page serves as the central management of all the exports you’ve created in Pricing Fox. Here you’ll find an overview of both one-off and regular exports, and you can manage them in one place.
The exports themselves are created on other pages of the app:
-
product exports (CSV, XLS, HTML) on the Products page
-
exports of competitor stores from price comparison sites in the Reports -> Competition section
You won’t find the Universal XML export here – it’s a special type of connection and is managed on the Connections page.
What you’ll find on the page#
The exports table#
The main part of the page is a table of all created exports. To quickly find a specific export, use the search field at the top – it searches the export name, URL, type, format, and email address.
In the table you see the following for each export:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Type + format | The type of export (e.g. Products, Competition) and file format (CSV, XLS, HTML) |
| Name | The export name entered when it was created |
| Filter | The query of products the export is based on |
| Record count | The number of rows in the most recently generated export |
| Regenerated | The date and time of the last regeneration |
| Last access | When the export was last opened or downloaded |
| Status | The current processing status (Done, In progress, Error) |
| Send by email | Whether automatic emailing of the export is set up |
| Public address | Whether the export has a public URL – click the icon to copy it |
Actions for each export#
Quick actions are available for each row in the table:
-
Manual regeneration – triggers an immediate regeneration of the export with current data
-
Download – downloads the current version of the export to your computer
-
Edit – lets you change the name, selected columns, or sending settings
-
Delete – removes the export permanently
The public address of an export#
If the export has a public address set, a link icon is shown in the corresponding column. Click it to copy the address – you can share it, for example, with a colleague or use it to connect to an external tool. An export with a public address is automatically regenerated twice a day.
Exports without a public address and without email sending set up are one-off – they’re automatically deleted a week after creation. If you want to keep an export, give it a public address or set up regular sending.
FAQ#
Why does my export seem outdated? Regular exports are automatically regenerated twice a day. If you need current data immediately, use the manual regeneration button next to the given export in the table.
Where do I create a new export? Exports aren’t created on this page, but directly from the source data – product exports on the Products page, competition exports in the Reports -> Competition section. The Exports page is only for managing exports you’ve already created.
How do I share an export with a colleague? Generate a public address for the export – the link icon appears in the Public address column. Click it to copy the address and pass it on. An export with a public address is updated automatically, so your colleague always sees current data.
Can I have multiple versions of the same export? Yes. Each export is a separate record – you can have, for example, one HTML export for presenting to a client and one CSV export for connecting to a BI tool, both based on the same product filter.
What happens if I delete an export with a public address? The public address stops working immediately after the export is deleted. Inform any recipients of the address in advance.
