Exporting items from IRIS


Introduction

This tutorial provides a step-by-step guide to exporting items from the IRIS platform.
Several types of items can be exported: your personal profile, your own publications, as well as external entities such as other researcher profiles, publications, organizational units, or periodicals (academic journals that group several publications).

Depending on your needs, you can:

  • Export a specific entity by accessing its dedicated page

  • Use search filters to export a set of items matching specific criteria (e.g. all publications in English or from several specific periodicals)

In the following sections, you'll find detailed procedures for each export type.


Exporting a Specific Entity

From the homepage, you can search for an entity either by selecting its type (1) and launching the search (2), or simply by entering keywords directly in the main search bar.

Using Filters to Export a Set of Entities

As with exporting specific entities, you should first select the desired entity type from the homepage. Then, you can apply the filters relevant to your needs.


In the following example, we are exporting all publications from 1560 to 1949.

Once your search is filtered, simply click the "Export" button.
Multiple entity types may be proposed. In this case, since we’re already in the "Publications" category, you just need to select it. However, if your search is more general and returns multiple types of entities (profiles, units, periodicals, etc.), you will first need to select the specific type you want to export.

You will then access the "Item Export Process Launcher". You must:

  1. Choose the output file format

  2. Select the export mode – either export all results or only a selection

    • If you wish to export only selected items, you will need to check them manually one by one

Once these steps are completed, click the "Export" button in the bottom-right corner.
Just like with targeted entity export, a downloadable file will be generated.
