Exporting Search Results To a Report

25Live allows you to export the results of an event, location, resource, or organization search to standard listing reports:

  • Event Listing - Excel
  • Location Listing - Excel
  • Resource Listing - Excel
  • Organization Listing - Excel

While both the Reports section of 25Live and the 25Live Reports tool require you to output that report using a saved search, this feature will allow you to export the results of any location search.
