Exporting Attribute Assignments

Exporting attribute assignments is a powerful tool to extract as much or as little information as you would like from the portal. The exported data can also be used as part of the importing process, which will enable you to update large amounts of data at one time.

From the list, select the columns that you would like to export. If you are using this export to import data back into the Portal, ensure that you export the Code field as it is the identifying field to match information.
