# Export and Share Your Cache Library or Collections

> Export your Cache library or individual collections at any time in JSON, CSV, or Bookmark HTML format. Share collections publicly with a link.

Your data belongs to you. Cache lets you export or share your collections at any time — whether you want a portable backup, need to migrate your bookmarks somewhere else, or simply want to send a curated list to someone else.

## Exporting a collection

You can export any individual collection as a standalone file directly from the collection view.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the collection">
    Navigate to the collection you want to export from your Cache library.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the collection menu">
    Click the **three-dot menu** (⋯) or options icon in the collection header to open the available actions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select Export">
    Choose **Export** from the menu.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose your format">
    Select the export format that works best for your use case. Available options include:

    * **JSON** — structured data, ideal for importing into other tools or apps
    * **CSV** — tabular format, easy to open in spreadsheets
    * **Bookmark HTML** — standard browser bookmark format, compatible with Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and most other browsers
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download the file">
    Click **Download**. The file saves to your device and is ready to use immediately.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Sharing a collection

Cache lets you generate a shareable link for any collection so you can share it publicly without requiring the recipient to have a Cache account.

To generate a share link:

1. Open the collection you want to share.
2. Click the **three-dot menu** (⋯) or options icon.
3. Select **Share** or **Copy link**.
4. Copy the link and send it to whoever you'd like.

Anyone with the link can view the collection in a read-only format. They can browse your bookmarks without signing up or signing in to Cache.

To stop sharing a collection, return to the collection menu and select **Revoke link**. The link becomes inactive immediately — anyone who visits the old URL will no longer be able to access the collection.

## Exporting your full library

If you want a complete copy of everything in your Cache account, you can request a full library export:

1. Go to **Settings** in Cache.
2. Select **Account**.
3. Click **Export Data**.

Cache will prepare a full export of your library — all collections, bookmarks, tags, and metadata — and make it available for download. This is useful for backups or if you ever decide to move to a different tool.

<Tip>
  Use shared collection links to distribute a curated reading list, research stack, or inspiration board with your team or audience — no Cache account required on their end.
</Tip>

<Note>
  Exported data is a snapshot at the time of export. It does not stay in sync with your Cache library — if you add or remove bookmarks after exporting, you'll need to export again to capture the latest state.
</Note>
