#### What is a reservation export?

A reservation export allows you to download all your reservation data from HolidayHero in a structured format. This is useful when you need to share data with external systems, create reports, or maintain records.

Exports are requested through the backoffice. Once the export is ready, an email with a secure download link is sent to the operator who requested it.

The secure download link in the email is only valid for a few days. Make sure to download your export promptly after receiving the email.
{% endhint %}
