# Export an Epic's Stories

You can export the list of Story names (and Role, Goal, and Benefit Statements, if generated) in an Epic to a Comma-Separated Value (.csv) file.

Open the Epic, and click the the **Download** button on the toolbar:

## CSV file structure

The downloaded .csv file contains the following columns:

* `Item` number
* `Story name`
* `Roal goal and benefit`: if generated for a Story as part of the Acceptance Criteria, this will be included. It may or may not match the `Story name`.

The file will look similar to this:
