# Export Product Groups to CSV

Download every [Product Group](/swatch/product-groups/show-separate-products-as-variants-with-product-groups.md) as a CSV file — useful for backups, bulk edits in a spreadsheet, or auditing what's configured across your store.

## How to export

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Go to the **Product groups** page

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Click **Export CSV**

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

The file downloads immediately with one row per product in a group.
