Exporting risks
Roles and permissions
The following roles can export risks:
Administrators who are members of the Risk Register
Compliance managers who are members of the Risk Register
Users who are members of the Risk Register
Risks can be exported from Hyperproof to a CSV file or XLSX (Excel) file. Note that when you export risks, linked control IDs are provided in the download file.
Note
To include specific fields in your export file, such as custom fields, you must make sure they are displayed in the Grid view for the items you are exporting. Use the Settings option to select the fields you want to display in the Grid view and choose their display order. To access Settings, click the Gear icon on the top right corner of the grid.
To include specific records in your export file, use the Filter options to reduce the number of records displayed in the Grid view. Only items included in the Grid view are included in the export file.
To include the Notes field in your risk export, select CSV format. To include Health, Inherent risk, and Residual risk fields in your risk export, select XLSX (Excel) format. The Health, Inherent risk, and Residual risk fields are calculated values and are not included in the CSV export to prevent users from attempting to modify those values by editing and re-importing the file.
From the left menu, select Risk.

Select the checkboxes next to the risks you want to export. To select all risks, select the All checkbox in the upper-left corner of the grid.
