The following section describes the steps for exporting Records of a Subform.
You can export records in the following ways:
As a file
XLSX
CSV
Via the API
Query as JSON - generates a URL for integrating with Power BI or Excel
Query as GeoJSON (available if your Subform contains a Geographic point field) - generates a URL for integrating with ArcGIS or QGIS
Query using R - generates a script that includes the the queryTable function
If your Subform includes attachments, a third section appears for attachments. If your Subform includes attachments, you can export all the attached files at once.
The “Query as GeoJSON” option is shown when your Subform has a geographic point field.
You can choose to include all columns in your export or include only selected columns.
You can export the Records of a Subform along with the Records of the Parent Form.
If you have more that one Subform in your Form you can export the Records of all Subforms along with the Records of the Parent Form. These Records will appear in multiple tabs in your spreadsheet.
If you export records of a Subform into XLS file, each Subform is separated into its own sheet.
