# Exporting your portfolio

You can export all assessments and statements of proficiency from your portfolio as a collection of PDF files. This is useful if you want to keep a local copy of your complete file or share your evidence outside of the platform. You can find this option in the portfolio under Portfolio settings > Export portfolio.
## Requesting an export
To create an export, click the button Send me an export. You will then receive an email containing a link to download the export. Please keep in mind that generating the file may take anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour, depending on the size of your portfolio.
## Content of the export
The export consists of a zip file containing a PDF version of all forms and statements of proficiency from your portfolio. If any original attachments were added to these items, they will also be included in the export.
## Additional information
### Receiving the email
The email containing the download link is sent to both your primary email address and your configured backup email address.
### Storage and validity
The generated export file is stored on our server for a limited time only. It is therefore important that you save a local copy of the file immediately after downloading, as the link will stop working after some time.
