# Configure Export Data Feeds

This article describes how to configure export data feeds in Mapp Intelligence.

It focuses exclusively on exporting structured data from Mapp Intelligence using file-based, scheduled data feeds.

---

## Where Export Data Feeds Fit in Implementations

Export data feeds are typically used to make analytics data available to **external systems**.

Common scenarios include:

- Providing recurring data extracts for BI or data warehouse systems
- Exporting segments or category data for CRM or marketing platforms
- Supplying structured analytics data for downstream processing

Configuring the export feed defines what data is delivered, in which structure, and on which schedule.

---

## Where to Configure Export Data Feeds

All data feeds are managed in: *Mapp Q3* *> Configuration > Feeds*

From this area, you can:

- Create new export feeds
- View and edit existing feed configurations
- Control schedules and activation status

---

## Creating an Export Data Feed

When creating a new data feed, set **Feed Type = Export**.

The export configuration consists of the following steps:

- Define feed metadata (title, description, active status)
- Configure actualization (schedule and execution time)
- Select the data type
- Select the exported data
- Configure file settings
- Validate the configuration using the preview

---

## Data Types (Export)

The data type defines which kind of objects are exported.

Available export data types include (depending on account configuration):

- **Segment**

Exports segment membership data.
- **Content Groups**

Exports configured content group structures.
- **Product Categories**

Exports product category data.
- **Media Categories**

Exports media-related category structures.
- **Campaign Categories**

Exports campaign classification data.
- **User Categories**

Export user-related category data.

In the configuration interface, this data type is labeled as **URM Categories**.

---

## Exported Data

After selecting a data type, you define which concrete objects are included in the export.

- All available objects of the selected data type are listed
- You can select only the objects that are relevant
- For time-based data, you can define a **period**
- The **row limit** restricts the maximum number of exported rows

This allows you to keep exports focused and control data volume.

---

## File Settings

Export data feeds generate structured files.

You configure:

- Export target (for example, SFTP)
- File name and naming pattern
- File format (CSV)
- Field separator and delimiter
- Header and time format

---

## Preview

At the bottom of the configuration, a **preview** is displayed.

The preview shows:

- The generated file name
- A sample of the exported content
- The applied format and separators

Use the preview to verify structure and formatting before activating the feed.

---

## Scheduling Considerations

- Export feeds run automatically based on the configured actualization
- Execution time and selected period directly affect data completeness
- Very large exports covering long timeframes may be incomplete

Smaller, recurring exports are recommended.

---

## Availability

Export data feeds are an **optional feature**. Availability and supported export options depend on your contract.

If export data feeds are not available in your account, contact your Mapp representative or support.
