You can export the membership of a community to a comma-separated
value (CSV) file that lists members by their email address.
Before you begin
Anyone can export the membership of a community with public
or moderated access. You must be a community member to export the
membership of a restricted community.
Note: The ability to export community
members is only available when email is configured to be displayed
for your deployment. If your administrator has configured email to
be hidden, the Export Members button does not
display in the user interface.
About this task
Exporting community membership to a CSV file is useful when
you want to create a community with the same owners or members as
an existing community. Instead of adding the members manually to the
new community, you can add them in a single transaction by first exporting
the membership details to a CSV file, and then importing details from
the CSV file into the new community.
Procedure
To export the members of a community, complete the following
steps.
- Open the Members page of the community
whose membership you want to export.
- Click Export Members.
- Select the role of the members that you want to export. You can export the community owners, members, or both.
- Click Export.
- Choose whether you want to save or open the CSV file.
What to do next
After exporting the membership of a community, you can add
the members to another community by importing the details from the
CSV file into the new community. For more information, see
