iManage Export to CSV
Export iManage Document Metadata to CSV
MatterExport produces a complete CSV metadata file for an entire iManage matter or workspace — author, dates, document type, matter and client codes, custom fields, and full version history. No 9,999 limit, no server, no manual grid exports view by view.
Native grid export vs. a complete CSV manifest
iManage Work can export the metadata of the items shown in a grid view to CSV — but only the columns on screen, and only for what you can load into a single view. For a real matter with thousands of documents across nested folders, that means stitching together view after view by hand. MatterExport generates the full manifest in one pass.
| Capability | Native iManage grid export | MatterExport |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | One grid view at a time | Entire matter or workspace in one CSV |
| Document limit | Limited by what a view can load | Unlimited — 100,000+ documents |
| Fields | Visible columns only | Full profile + custom fields |
| Versions | Latest only | Every version recorded |
| Documents included | Metadata only | CSV + the documents, structure preserved |
