Exports
Exports allow you to generate and download files from your Increase account. This includes data reports (like transaction CSVs and account statements) as well as documents (like verification letters and tax forms).
They are useful for analyzing your account data in other tools, migrating to another service, or for information gathering purposes.
Making an Export
You can create an Export in the API or Dashboard. Once you create an Export, it will have status: pending. When it’s ready, the Export’s status will transition to status: complete and the result dictionary will become available with the file_id child attribute populated. We’ll send you a webhook for this and optionally notify you via email.
Lifecycle
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
pending | The Export file is being created and is not ready to download. |
complete | The Export file has been created and is ready to download. |
failed | The Export file failed to be created. |
Types of Export
When you create an Export, you’ll need to indicate what category you want. We’re working on more export types, but please let us know if there’s a field or type that would be helpful to you!

Backwards compatibility
Exports are currently in beta, and we’ll occasionally add or remove columns to our reports depending on user feedback. This might change the absolute ordering of columns. If you’re automatically ingesting these CSVs in code, we recommend you not rely on column ordering and instead use the column headers to know how to parse each column.
