Benchling provides flexibility for your team to export your data. You can learn how to export from Notebook, Registry, and Inventory below:
Notebook Application

From Notebook, you can bulk export entries easily into either PDF or HTML formats. Please find detailed steps in this article to export entire contents under Projects or folders. The exported files will be sent to your email, which is associated with your Benchling account.
