# Downloading Exports from Export History

Exports in Wellifiy are generated in the background and collected in one place. **Export History** is the log of every export your Organisation has run, and it's where completed files are downloaded from.

---

#### 📍 Where to Find Export History

Go to:  
**Reporting → Export History**

The page lists exports that have been generated for your Organisation, with the most recent at the top.

---

#### 🔁 How the Export Process Works

1. A Team Member clicks **Export** on the screen they're exporting from.
2. The export is generated in the background. Larger exports take longer to prepare.
3. An email notification is sent to the Team Member who requested it, confirming the export is ready.
4. The Team Member opens **Reporting → Export History** and downloads the file from the relevant row.

Exports are prepared in the background so you don't need to stay on the screen while the file is built. You can keep working and come back to it.

---

#### 📧 What the Notification Email Does

The email is a notification only. It confirms the export has finished generating.

Two things worth knowing:

- The email does not contain the export file, and no export data is sent by email. The file is only ever downloaded from within the Staff Portal, behind your login.
- You don't need the email to retrieve the export. As soon as the file has finished generating it appears in the **Export History** table, so you can go straight to **Reporting → Export History** at any time.

---

#### 🗂️ The Export History Table

Each row represents one export request and gives you the detail needed to identify it and download the file.

---

#### 🔒 Permissions

Access to **Reporting** is controlled by the **Reporting** permission on a Team Member's Role, configured under **Administration → Roles and Permissions**.

Some exports carry an additional permission requirement. Exports from the **Access Log**, for example, need both the **Reporting** and **Patient Access Log** permissions.

---

Next step:  
➡️ *Set up the Reporting permission on the Roles that need export access. See [Create Roles and Permissions](https://support.wellifiy.com/en-au/knowledge-hub/create-roles-permissions?hsLang=en-au).*
