# Can I manually export data?

Middle features an [asynchronous data export feature](https://docs.middle.app/middle-docs/building-workflows/sync/stored-records#export-records). You can export data by going to the app connection you'd like to export data from and either clicking **Export** to the right of the record type or when viewing stored records, clicking **Export** at the top of the page.

You'll then be able to select which fields you'd like to export, set a filter to only grab records updated after a specified date, and select the file format you'd like to be sent (`.zip` or `.bz2`).
