How do I export scan data to CSV?

Export account-wide totals

1. Open Analytics in the sidebar.
2. Choose the source and the date range you want — the export matches exactly what is on screen.
3. Click Export CSV next to the date dropdown.

The file arrives as qrcodestack-analytics-30d.csv or similar, named after the range you chose. It is written from the data already loaded in the page, so it downloads instantly with no waiting.

Inside, the blocks are stacked with a blank line between them:

• Date and a count, one row per day
• Device Type and a count
• Operating System and a count
• Browser and a count
• Country, City and Referrer blocks, each only when there is something to report

Export a row per scan for one code

1. Open the code from My QR Codes.
2. Set the date range on its analytics section.
3. Click Export CSV. The button reads Exporting... while it collects the rows.

Columns: Scan Time, Device, OS, Browser, Country, City, IP Address, Referrer. Scan Time is in UTC. Up to 10,000 scans are collected for the selected range, so split a very busy code into shorter ranges if you need everything.

What the file does and does not include

Pulling full history with the API

For history beyond one range, or to load scans into your own warehouse on a schedule, use the API instead of the buttons:

• GET /api/v1/qr-codes/{id}/analytics — totals and breakdowns, with optional from and to dates.
• GET /api/v1/qr-codes/{id}/scans — the raw scan list, cursor-paginated, up to 100 rows per page.

Both default to the same People filter; pass traffic=all to include machine traffic. API access needs a Pro or Business plan and a key with the analytics:read scope — see getting started with the API.

Common problems

The button reads "Export CSV (Pro)"

The account is on the free plan or the subscription has lapsed. Any active paid plan, and the free trial, can export.

There is no button at all

It only appears once there is at least one scan in the selected range. Widen the range.

Country and City columns are blank

Location detail is included on the Business plan and during the free trial. Starter and Pro get everything else.

The file will not open properly in a spreadsheet

It is UTF-8 CSV. If accents look wrong, import it rather than double-clicking, and choose UTF-8 as the encoding.

I need every scan ever recorded

Export in 365-day slices, use the API, or take a full account export from Settings → Profile → Privacy & Data, which includes scan analytics as JSON.
