Download an exported file with WorldShare

After you export a file, you can download your export files from within the WorldShare environment with a single sign-on.

Your browser opens a dialog box so that you can save the file to an appropriate location on your local system. Each file can be downloaded multiple times; however, each file will have a unique name that includes the date and time that it was downloaded. The downloaded file will be a zipped Microsoft Excel file (xls.zip).

Files may be removed 90 days after the Post Date.
