# Export Data

> Download your subscribers and posts as CSV files for backup or migration

You can export your data at any time from **Settings → Newsletter → Export Data**. Exports are generated as CSV files and are available to download immediately or from the historical exports log.

## Export types

### Export Subscribers (Quick)

Downloads a lightweight CSV with the essential fields for each subscriber:

* Email address
* Subscription status
* Subscriber tier

Use this when you need a fast snapshot of your list without extra detail.

### Export Subscribers (Full)

Downloads a comprehensive CSV with every field LetterBucket stores for your subscribers, including:

* Email address
* First and last name
* Subscription status and tier
* Signup date
* Engagement stats (open rate, click rate)
* Segments
* Any custom fields

Use this for full list migrations, detailed analysis, or backup purposes.

### Export Posts

Downloads a CSV of all your posts with their metadata:

* Title and subtitle
* Publication date
* Status (draft, published, etc.)
* Key performance metrics

## Historical exports

Every export you generate is logged in the **Historical Exports** table at the bottom of the page. The table shows:

| Column       | Description                               |
| ------------ | ----------------------------------------- |
| **Date**     | When the export was generated             |
| **Type**     | Which export type was requested           |
| **Status**   | Processing, ready, or failed              |
| **Download** | Link to download the file once it's ready |

Exports remain available for download for a limited time. If you need to re-download an older export, generate a new one.

<Tip>
  Run a full subscriber export regularly as a backup, especially before making bulk changes to your list.
