6.5.3.4. Exporting historical events

1. Go to the Historical Events module either by clicking the module icon in the main menu page or by clicking the hamburger menu () on the upper right corner and selecting Historical Events.
   

2. In the History page tab, fill out the following fields: of the historical event/s you would like to export:

   1. Geo-Object Type: choose the geo-object type. This could either be the “before” or “after” geo-object type for the historical event/s
   2. Start Date: type or select the starting date of the range of time of the historical event/s you would like to export
   3. End Date: type or select the end date of the range of time of the historical event/s you would like to export. If you would like to export the historical event/s that is/are valid until the present date, click the Set as most current button.
      

3. Click the Submit button. All historical events involving the selected geo-object type which happen within the start date and end date will be shown. In the example below, all historical events involving the Shire (MOHA) geo-object type valid from 2007-04-20 to the present are shown.
   

4. In case you would like to export the historical event/s for only one particular date, type or select that date for both the Start Date and End Date fields. Then click the Submit button.

   
   From the example above, if you would like to export only the historical events that happened on 20 April 2007 (2007-04-20) pertaining to the “Reassignment of Shires due to the creation of the Orrostart Province”, set both the Start Date and End Date fields to “2007-04-20” then click the Submit button. You will now see that only the historical events for that date are shown in the list.
   

5. To export the list of historical events (in MS Excel format), click the Export button.
