# Export

The Indirect Activities export generates an Excel (.xlsx) workbook containing data from your indirect activities. The export includes activity details, intervention channels, collaborators, and partners across multiple worksheets.

## Getting Started

To export indirect activities, navigate to the Indirect Activities list under the **Engage** menu and click the **Export** button. The export includes all indirect activities matching your current filters.

**TIP:** Apply filters before exporting to limit the results to a specific reporting period, program area, or completion status. Large exports are processed in the background and you will receive an email when the file is ready to download.

* **Intervention Channels** — One row per intervention channel, including the channel name, description, site details, estimated reach, newly reached count, and source of reach data.
* **Collaborators** — One row per collaborator per indirect activity, including the user's name, access level, contributor status, and contribution description.

### Conditional Worksheets
