The export is emailed to the main user and can also be downloaded later from the Statistics section. ### **Export job metadata** Follow these steps to generate a metadata export. 1. Open **Photo Management**. 2. Select **Actions \> Export metadata**. 3. Wait for the export to be generated. ![Actions menu with the Export metadata option.](https://help.gotphoto.com/hubfs/gotphoto-migration/cVQVDPQXvoSh8CViDk68U-awQmVP2ak4Mg.png) The completed metadata export is automatically sent to the main user's email address. Additional users with the appropriate permissions can choose to receive it either at the main user's email address or their own account email. ![Dialog for sending a metadata export with options to send it to the main email address or the current user's email address](https://help.gotphoto.com/hubfs/gotphoto-migration/p7K9a2-HDS2VrIuFmWUAYZ7XuONXZwBk_g.png) ### **View the metadata export file** You can also download the completed export from the **Statistics \> Statistic Export** tab. ![Statistics Export page listing completed metadata exports.](https://help.gotphoto.com/hubfs/gotphoto-migration/u_1GBFtJ8zehIIw6H0TFBXyCkmUhK9zR_g.png) ### Sample metadata export The exported CSV file contains metadata for the selected photo job. ![CSV file containing exported photo job metadata.](https://help.gotphoto.com/hubfs/gotphoto-migration/giqUsqzP0-0qitzrgcBwnFj_c2FygQzphg.png) ### **Export the original photos** If you also need the original images, export them separately from **Photo Management**. Metadata and photo exports are generated independently. ### **The takeaway** Export job metadata from Photo Management. By default, the metadata export is sent to the main user's email address. Additional users with the appropriate permissions can choose to receive it either at the main user's email address or their own account email.  You can download completed exports later from the Statistics section. Original photos must be exported separately from Photo Management. - [Getting Started](https://help.gotphoto.com/en/support/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [One-Time Settings](https://help.gotphoto.com/en/support/getting-started?hsLang=en#one-time-settings) -
