Exports
Export historical events as a file or through a destination, and export links and segment members as CSV.
Each export runs in the background and ends with an email.
| Export | What you get | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Events | Every analytics and purchase event in a date range, as gzip NDJSON, by email or through a destination | Developers → Data Export → Exports |
| Links | Your dashboard links and their metrics, as CSV | Links → Dynamic Links |
| Segment members | The people and devices in a segment, as CSV | The segment's page |
Events
The event export reads your retained analytics history. It covers events from before you connected the event stream and gaps older than its 7 days. It needs the event stream's paid plan and an instance admin.
Go to Developers → Data Export → Exports.
Choose a Date range, such as Last 30 days, or set your own. The range is up to 92 days, ends today or earlier, and falls within your plan's data retention.
Under Send export to, choose Email me a download link or one of your destinations.
Click Start export, check the details, and click Confirm export.
Email download
- The email links to one gzip NDJSON file, with one event envelope per line.
- The file includes every event type, purchases included, with country-level location only.
- The link works for 24 hours.
Through a destination
- The range is sent through the destination, filtered by its event types and its IP and city setting.
- Exported events can arrive mixed with live events. Deduplicate by
idas usual. - While the destination is paused or backing off after failures, the export waits. Grovs rechecks every 15 minutes and starts once delivery runs.
- If the export fails partway, it resumes where it stopped instead of sending everything again.
Both deliveries export purchases at their latest version.
When a destination falls more than 7 days behind, Grovs emails you the exact range it skipped. Export that range to fill the gap.
Links
On Links → Dynamic Links, pick a date range and click Export. Grovs emails a CSV of the links on the active or archived list, with their metrics for that range. The file is deleted after 24 hours.
Columns: Link ID, Name, Title, Subtitle, Updated At, Generated From Platform, SDK Generated, Tags, Active, Access Path, View, Open, Install, Reinstall, Reactivation, Avg Engagement Time, Time Spent, Data and Campaign.
Segment members
On a segment's page, click Export CSV. Grovs emails you when the file is ready. Download it from the segment's Exports panel within 24 hours. See Members and exports.
