Exporting Datastores

Exporting DataStores to AirTable

Datastore is extremely outdated and buggy. Because of this we consider Datastore to be end of life. This means no more bug fixing, or further development. But never fear, there is built in functionality to export Datastore as an Excel file or exporting directly to AirTable.

1. You can create a Free AirTable Account or a paid Team or Business Account. ANR IT does not provide AirTable accounts, so it is up to your organization to set up a paid account.

2. Log in to AirTable. Add a Base.

3. Navigate to an existing Site Builder Site with existing Datastore.

4. Click on Datastores link the left hand navigation.

5. Click on the Data Button for the Datastore you want to export.
