# Export

The export function allows the merchant to export the entire catalogue of products. This export comes in the same .csv format that is used on the import functionality. This allows merchants to export their catalogue, make edits to the products and then import the sheet again.

### How to Export the Catalogue

1. Click on System
2. Select Export
3. Click on the Create Icon in the top right of the page
4. This will take you to the profile select page. You will need to create a profile if you have not already. Click on the Create Icon in the top right of the page again
5. Enter a profile name. Try to use a name that you will recognise in future like "Export"
6. From the Plugin drop down select Basic Goods Products
7. You do not need to enter or edit any of the other details under Profile
8. You do not need to update this section if you are importing new products.
9. Click Okay once you are happy
10. Navigate back to the exports page
11. Click on the kebab menu next to the export you just created and select download

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.storefront.co.za/features/system/export.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
