Exporting Data

Download your listener data as CSV files for analysis in Excel, Google Sheets, or any other tool.

Export types

You can download two types of CSV export:

Stream CSV

Downloads all listener data for your entire station. Each row is a single listen event.

Columns included:

Show CSV

Downloads listener data for a specific show only — same format as the stream CSV but filtered to one show.

How to export

Export tab
The Export tab lets you download stream-level statistics as a CSV file.

Stream export

  1. Go to StatisticsExport tab
  2. Click Download Stream CSV
  3. A .csv file downloads to your computer

Show export

  1. Go to a show's statistics page (from the show list, click a show, then its Statistics tab)
  2. Use the action menu to download the show CSV
  3. A .csv file filtered to that show downloads to your computer

Exports can include up to 500,000 records.

What to do with exported data

Funder reporting

Community and student stations often need to report listenership to funders, grant bodies, or student unions. The CSV export gives you the raw data to create custom reports:

  • Total listens by date range
  • Unique listeners (count distinct IP + user agent combinations)
  • Listening trends over time
  • Breakdown by show

Ofcom returns

UK community radio stations required to report to Ofcom can use the export to demonstrate reach and engagement. Import into a spreadsheet and filter by date range to match the reporting period.

Custom analysis

Import the CSV into Excel, Google Sheets, or a tool like Tableau for deeper analysis:

  • Pivot tables by show, date, or device
  • Time series charts of listening trends
  • Geographic analysis using IP addresses (with a geolocation service)
  • Audience segmentation by device type or app

Integration with other tools

If you use external analytics platforms (Google Analytics, Mixpanel, etc.), the CSV export lets you combine AutoPod listener data with your website or social media metrics.

Tips

Export regularly

Download a monthly or quarterly export as a backup and for your records. CSV files are small and easy to archive.

Filter in your spreadsheet

The CSV includes all data — use your spreadsheet's filter and pivot table features to slice it by date, show, device, or any other dimension.

UTC timestamps

All dates and times are in UTC. Use the stream timezone column to convert to your local time in your spreadsheet.
