# Exporting a Repository

Repositories may be exported using two different methods.

Method 1 — Export a Repository as an XML File

The first method is to export a complete Repository as a `.xml` file. This is an ideal way to create a backup file as all data and information, including any hierarchical file structure, is contained in the exported file.

To export a Repository as a `.xml` file:

1. Select the Repositories node in the Task Manager.
2. Right-click in the Items List on the appropriate Repository and select the Export option from the menu. A standard Save As dialog box will open.
3. Select the required location and enter a file name for the file. Then click on the Save button to close the dialog box.

Method 2 — Export a Repository as a CSV File

The second method is to export the Repository data only as a `.csv` file. Some information, including any hierarchical file structure, is not included in the exported file.

To export a Repository as a `.csv` file:

1. Select the Repositories node in the Task Manager.
2. Right-click in the Items List on the appropriate Repository and select the Open option from the menu. The Repository dialog box will be displayed.
3. Click on the Export button to open the Export Repository dialog box.
4. Complete the dialog box as required and then click on the OK button to export the file.
