tip

The PDF and Word downloads ask nothing and start straight away: their page size, date format, layout, and wording are set by administrators for the whole organisation.

Download a plan​

  • In the plan editor toolbar, the Download button opens the list of formats. It is disabled while the plan has unsaved changes (Save your changes first) or when the current status does not allow downloads.
  • On the Plan overview page, Download is in the ... more actions menu. It is not shown when the current status does not allow downloads.

Choose a format to download the file. Whether a status allows downloads is set by your administrator on the plan and asset workflows.

The more actions menu of the Plan Overview page with the Download submenu open, listing PDF, Document, RDA JSON, RAiD JSON, and XML Download a plan

Download an asset​

On the Asset overview page, open the ... more actions menu and choose Download, then the format. Every collaborator on the plan can download its assets, when the asset's current status allows it (see Plan & asset workflows).
