Data Export Development Tutorials, Guides & Insights

Ensure that your database has a table for users with fields such as name, email, and created_at (the registration date).

In this step, we’ll retrieve all the user data from the database using Eloquent’s User::all() method. You can customize this query based on your requirements (for instance, retrieving only active users or users within a specific date range).

SELECT * FROM your_table_name
INTO OUTFILE '/path/to/export.csv'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n';

• /path/to/export.csv: The file where the data will be exported.
