Export data from Catalog

Export specifications:

Developer guide:

There are three ways you can export data from Labelbox: export from Catalog, export from a model run, and export from a labeling project. This guide explains how to select and export data from Catalog.

Exporting from Catalog allows you to include the project and/or model run information when you export the data rows.

​

How to export via the app UI

From the Catalog tab, you can apply and combine filters to query data rows based on similarity, natural language search, annotations, metadata, and more. Then, you can choose to include the associated project and/or model run information. Note that excluding optional fields from your export will make the process faster and the export file smaller.

To export data rows from Catalog, follow these steps:

​

Step 1: Select data rows

​

Step 2: Select export fields to include

Select the optional fields that you wish to include in the export. Definitions for these fields can be found in the Export Glossary.

​

Step 3: Include project data

When you select Export labels from project, you will be prompted to select from the dropdown one or more projects. Only projects in which one or more of the selected data rows have been labeled will appear in the dropdown.

For the selected projects, all labels made in the project will be included in the NDJSON for each respective data row.

​

Step 4: Include model run data

When you select Export labels and predictions from model runs, you will be prompted to select from the dropdown one or more model runs. Only model runs in which one or more of the selected data rows appear will appear in the dropdown.

For the selected model runs, all labels and predictions made in the model run will be included in the NDJSON for each respective data row.
