Export data from Chrome Enterprise Core

For administrators who enroll Windows, Mac, Linux, or iOS devices in Chrome Enterprise Core.

When you manage enrolled Chrome browsers and profiles from your Admin console, you can export data collected from your users' browsers and profiles, Chrome versions data, and data on each extension used in your organization. For managed browsers, information is exported as a CSV or compressed JSON file, while for managed profiles it’s a CSV file. The maximum number of browsers that you can export to CSV is 1,000,000 or JSON is 5,000. There is no limit for exporting managed profiles CSV files.
