- Click Download to view or save the file. (The file will be saved in your default download location.)
- Click Close.
Note: If a student is enrolled in multiple groups within a group category, or multiple sections within a course, those enrollments may export as a comma-separated list within one cell.
Note: The Automatic Zero for Missed Submissions setting does not export.
