# Export Roster and Case Data as CSV from DocketStream

> Download roster, court case, search, and alert history data as CSV files from DocketStream. Available on Professional and Enterprise plans only.

CSV exports let you pull DocketStream data directly into spreadsheets, case management tools, or custom analysis pipelines without retyping a single field. Whether you need a county-wide roster snapshot, a filtered set of court cases, or a log of your alert history, exports give you clean, structured data that's ready to use the moment you download it.

## Plan Requirements

<Warning>
  CSV exports are available on **Professional** (\$79/mo) and **Enterprise** plans only. Starter plan accounts do not include export functionality. To unlock exports, [upgrade your plan](/pricing).

## What You Can Export

DocketStream supports CSV exports across four data types:

* **Roster data** — current and historical booking rosters for one or more Georgia counties
* **Court case search results** — filtered results from court case searches
* **Unified search results** — results from DocketStream's cross-county unified search
* **Alert history** — a log of all Smart Alert watcher notifications for your account

## Export Roster Data

<Steps>
  <Step title="Navigate to the Roster tab">
    Click **Roster** in the top navigation to open the county roster view.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select a county">
    Use the **County** dropdown to select the county you want to export. Leave it blank to include all available counties in a single export file.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Apply filters">
    Narrow your export using the available filter options — for example, a specific **date range**, a **charge type**, or **booking status**. Filters are optional but help keep large exports focused.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click the Export button">
    Click the **Export** button in the top-right corner of the Roster page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose CSV format">
    In the export dialog, select **CSV** as the file format, then click **Generate Export**.

    <Note>
      Large exports — such as an entire county over multiple days — may take a few seconds to generate. The download will begin automatically once the file is ready.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download the file">
    Your file downloads automatically to your browser's default downloads folder. Files are named using the pattern `[county]-[date].csv` for easy organization (for example, `fulton-2025-01-15.csv`).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## CSV Column Reference (Roster Export)

Each row in a roster CSV export contains the following columns:

| Column         | Description                                                     |
| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Name`         | Full name of the individual                                     |
| `DOB`          | Date of birth                                                   |
| `Booking Date` | Date and time of booking                                        |
| `Release Date` | Date and time of release (blank if still in custody)            |
| `County`       | Georgia county where the booking was recorded                   |
| `Charges`      | Charge description(s), semicolon-separated for multiple charges |
| `Bond Amount`  | Bond amount set at booking or as updated                        |

## Bulk and Automated Exports (Enterprise)

For high-volume or automated workflows, manual CSV downloads may not be practical. Enterprise plan users can use the DocketStream REST API to pull roster and case data programmatically.

<Tip>
  Schedule regular data pulls by calling the API endpoint on a cron job. This lets you keep a local or warehouse copy of DocketStream data fully up to date without logging into the platform. See the [REST API reference](/api/roster) for endpoint details, authentication, and response schemas.
