You can export recipients by status into a CSV file:

- Active recipients
- Unsubscribed recipients
- Blocked recipients
- Recipients that exceeded the bounce limit

To export recipients:

1. Open the Optimizely Campaign [menu](docId\:PmNPgvNucBrAG5Rw8f41f) and select **Recipients** > **Export**.
2. Select the recipients you want to export.
3. Click **Options**.
   - **Active Recipients**. Click the recipient list whose recipients you want to export. To export only recipients of a specific marketing channel, select the marketing channel from the **Media Type** drop-down list (available for active recipients only). You can also limit the recipient list by selecting one or more target groups from the **Target Groups** drop-down list.
   - **Unsubscribed Recipients**. Enter a start and/or an end date.

     - If you do not enter a start or end date, all recipients in the selected status are exported.
     - If you enter only a start date, recipients from that date to the present are exported.
     - If you enter only an end date, recipients from the creation of your client until the entered date are exported.

     **Tip**

     If you use unsubscribe lists based on recipient lists, also select an unsubscribe type:

     - **Global**. Exports client-wide unsubscribers that are not assigned to any particular recipient list.
     - **Recipient List**. Exports unsubscribers that are assigned to one or more recipient lists.
     :::
   - **Blocked Recipients**. Click the recipient list whose recipients you want to export.
   - **Recipients That Exceeded the Bounce Limit**. Enter a start and/or an end date.
     - If you do not enter a start or end date, all recipients in the selected status are exported.
     - If you enter only a start date, recipients from that date to the present are exported.
     - If you enter only an end date, recipients from the creation of your client until the entered date are exported.
4. Click **Finish**.

You can start several exports for different statuses simultaneously, but only one export per status.
