# Import & Export Overview

> Download VoxDash data as Excel, and bulk-update it by uploading an edited spreadsheet.

Many VoxDash screens let you **export** a list to an Excel file, and several let you
**import** an edited spreadsheet back to make bulk changes. This section documents
each one: what it does, the columns, the limits, and a ready-to-edit sample file.

<Note>
  Every importer accepts **`.xlsx` only** and verifies the real file contents (not just
  the file name). Columns are matched by **header name**, so you can reorder columns —
  but keep the header text exactly as shown on each page. Start from the sample file and
  you can't go wrong.

## How exports are named

Exported files are named automatically as `{feature}_{entity}_{date_time}.xlsx`
(for example `organization_users_20260620_090807.xlsx`). The date-time keeps repeat
downloads from overwriting each other.

## What "validation" means

When you import a file, VoxDash checks it before changing anything:

* the file is a genuine `.xlsx`,
* it is within the size limit for that screen,
* it isn't a malformed or "zip-bomb" workbook,
* the required column headers are present.

If any check fails, **nothing is changed** and you get an error message. Fix the file
and try again.
