Atlan provides a family of apps for moving asset metadata in and out of the platform. **Export apps** generate CSV or spreadsheet output from Atlan metadata. **Import apps** load metadata from CSV files into Atlan in bulk.

The sections below link to the relevant integration and app documentation. Access to some apps may need to be enabled for your tenant, contact your admin or [Atlan support](https://docs.atlan.com/support/submit-request) if you don't have access.

## Asset export

 From the Assets or Business Graph tab, export all or a filtered subset to a spreadsheet; update metadata in bulk and sync back to Atlan.
