How to export your library to JSON

Bulk-export your library as a .json file for scripts and other systems.

JSON is the format to pick when something other than a person is going to read the export. Every image keeps its name, URL, language and alt text together, so nothing has to be re-matched on the other end.

Open Export As → .json

On My Library, click Export As and pick .json in the Format row of the panel that opens.

Select the rows you want to export

Tick rows individually, 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 the whole library, clear search and filters first, then use the header checkbox.

The checkbox column of the My Library table in Alt Text Studio, with the select-all box in the header and the first row's box both outlined in red and ticked — The export acts on exactly the rows you tick.

What you get

A .json file containing one object per image-and-language combination. The optional columns you tick in the panel (text length, brand, product, colors, keywords, custom prompt) are added as extra keys on each object; leave them unticked and you get the four core fields only.

Sample exported .json

[
  {
    "name": "headphones-product",
    "url": "https://alttextstudio.com/images/examples/headphones-product.webp",
    "language": "English",
    "alt_text": "Black over-ear wireless headphones on a wooden desk"
  },
  {
    "name": "headphones-product",
    "url": "https://alttextstudio.com/images/examples/headphones-product.webp",
    "language": "Spanish",
    "alt_text": "Auriculares inalámbricos negros sobre un escritorio de madera"
  }
]

Large exports arrive by email

Past 500 selected items the panel switches to email mode: the button becomes Email File and a Send export to input pre-fills with your account email. The .json file arrives as an attachment from no-reply@alttextstudio.com. Rate limit: 5 export emails per 10 minutes.
