# Download formats

Click the green **Share and export** button on your results page to download your results as a CSV, PDF, or PNG file, or to copy a shareable link.

**CSV (new)** – Spreadsheet file optimized for Excel and Google Sheets. One row per respondent, with ranked vote columns and embedded emojis. Best for detailed analysis.

**CSV (legacy)** – Previous CSV format. Available if you need the older structure for existing workflows.

**PDF** – Full results in a printable document.

**PNG** – Image file of your results.

If a respondent selected multiple values for a demographic trait (like "Shopping at Walmart; Shopping at Target"), the CSV separates them with semicolons.

# Share results with a link

Click **Copy shareable link** from the **Share and export** menu. Anyone with the link can view your results — no PickFu account required.

You can also share **filtered views**. As you apply filters on your results page (by keyword, demographic trait, survey option, or Helpful/Not helpful), the URL in your browser updates automatically. Copy that URL to send a curated view — for example, share only the Helpful responses with your team, or only the responses from a specific demographic segment. See [how to filter your survey results](https://help.pickfu.com/en/articles/2039570-filtering-poll-results).

Your survey stays private regardless of which link you share — only people you give the URL to can see the results.

# Frequently asked questions

## Do exports of Click Tests include heatmaps?

The PDF and PNG exports for Click Tests include heatmap visualizations. The CSV exports don't contain heatmaps or click data — only the written comments and respondent demographic data.

## What if I see "N/A" in my CSV?

"N/A" means a respondent didn't provide a response for that particular question — for example, if your survey didn't include options for respondents to vote on, the "Q1 Vote" column would say "N/A".

## Can I export just the filtered results?

Yes. The CSV, PDF, and PNG exports all respect the filters currently applied to your results page. Apply your filters first, then click **Share and export** to download only that filtered view.
