How to export your library to CSV
Bulk-export selected images and chosen columns to a CSV.
CSV is the most flexible export format. Open it in Excel, Google Sheets, or pipe it into a script. You pick which rows and which columns to include.
Open the Export menu in My Library
On My Library, click the Export As button at the top right of the table. A dropdown lists CSV, HTML, JSON, and Plain Text formats. Pick CSV.
Select the rows you want to export
Tick the checkbox on each row you want, or use the header checkbox to select every row matching your current search and filters (selection works across pages, not just the visible page). To export your entire library, clear all filters and search first, then click the header checkbox.
Pick which optional columns to include
Every export always includes:
image_name— your label for the imageimage_url— the source URL (uploads showYOUR_IMAGE_URL_HEREso you can swap in your final hosted URL)source_type—URLorUpload- One
alt_text_xxcolumn per language in your library (alt_text_en,alt_text_es, etc.) created_at— ISO 8601 timestamp
You can opt in to additional columns:
text_length— Normal or Detailedbrand,product,primary_color,secondary_colorseo_keywords,negative_keywords(pipe-separated values)custom_prompt
Click Export to download or email
Small exports download immediately as a .csv file. If you have more than 500 items selected, the export panel switches to email mode: the action button becomes Email File and a Send export to input pre-fills with your account email (you can change it). The file arrives as an attachment from no-reply@alttextstudio.com (check spam if it doesn't show up). Rate limit: 5 export emails per 10 minutes.
