# Export Data

### Overview

Network administrators can export the full network data as an **XML file** or schedule automatic exports at regular intervals. The exported file includes details about the **network configuration, user information, projects, groups, events, ideas, status updates, and related data**.

{% hint style="info" %}
The exported XML file **does not** contain actual files. However, it includes **links to all stored files on the AWS server**.
{% endhint %}

If disabled, admins can still access the file from **Admin Portal > Home >** [**Exported Data**](https://guides.mangoapps.com/admin-guide/home-1/exported-data).

Click **Save** to apply the selected settings.
