Exporting all documents

Download all documents in a data room as a single ZIP archive

Updated over a week ago

You can export the documents within a data room as a ZIP file. The export preserves the folder structure, allowing you to download a structured copy of the data room.


How to export all documents

You must have Download permission on the data room (or relevant folders/files) to export content.

To export all documents:

  1. Open the data room

  2. Click Export button in the navigation bar

  3. Select ZIP file

The export will begin processing in the background.

Note: If you have a DMS enabled, you can select this as your export location


How the export works

When you start an export:

  • A ZIP archive is generated in the background.

  • The file appears in the Downloads panel once ready.

  • The generated ZIP file remains available for 24 hours.

If you remain on the page, the ZIP file will automatically download once it is ready.
If you navigate away, you can return to the Downloads panel to download the archive later.


Permission considerations

Exports always respect data room, folder and file permissions.

This means:

  • Only files and folders you have permission to view or download are included.

  • Restricted folders or documents are excluded from the ZIP archive.

  • Data room–level Edit permission does not override folder- or file-level restrictions.

If you do not have permission to download certain content, it will not appear in the exported archive.
