# Share and export data and dashboards from Mammoth

> Share Mammoth dashboards by link, email viewers updates, download a View as a file, serve a live CSV link, or export to databases, files, apps and APIs.

You get Mammoth data to people by sharing a dashboard, and to systems by downloading or exporting a View. Share a published dashboard by link, email or collection, or use the three View toolbar controls: the download icon (⬇) saves a one-time copy, **Export** delivers data after every pipeline run, and **Publish** builds a dashboard from the View. Downloads are on every plan; which export destinations you can use depends on your plan.

## The three View toolbar actions

| Control | What it does | Updates on its own? |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Download icon (⬇) | Opens **Save a copy**: **Download file** (**CSV**, **Excel** or **JSON**, plus **NDJSON**, **XML**, **YAML** or **Parquet** under **More formats**), **New dataset**, or **Email** once, now, to people in this workspace. Disabled in edit mode or in a view-only workspace | No, it's a snapshot |
| **Export** | Creates a pipeline task that delivers data after every pipeline run. The menu opens on **External Destinations** (databases, files, apps, REST API and, on Enterprise plans, **Somewhere else…**). **Mammoth Managed** has **Send to Dataset**, **Live link** and managed **Google BigQuery** or **PostgreSQL** | Yes |
| **Publish** | Opens the create page to build a dashboard, slides, doc or Q&A from the View, then share it by link | When the dashboard's sync settings are on |

A destination your plan doesn't include shows a **Trial** pill on its card in the Export menu; hover it to see which plans include it. Each saved export shows **When it runs**, its **Run history**, and a **Send only new rows** option where the destination keeps earlier rows. Project members get an email when an export fails.

## Hold data for review with Auto-sync

Every destination export, and the Live Link task, has an **Auto-sync** setting. When it's on (the default), data goes out each time the pipeline runs. When it's off, data waits in the **Monitor** panel under **Needs Attention** → **Pending** until you release it. See [Hold exports for review with Auto-sync](https://mammoth.io/docs/learn/share-and-export/send-to-destinations/#hold-exports-for-review-with-auto-sync).
