### Export entries using a secure URL

When you configure a new export, the plugin will generate a secure download URL that you can share with anyone who needs the data (No need to log in!). Reports will automatically update as new entries are added.

#### GravityExport Lite includes many features:

- Limit access to downloads—either make a URL public or require users to be logged-in with correct permissions
- Download reports from multiple forms at once
- Export entry notes along with entries
- Transpose data (instead of one entry per-row, it would be one column per row)
- Attach entry exports to notifications
