# Export Dscout data to HeyMarvin

Dscout lets you analyze your data directly in the platform. However, if your team uses HeyMarvin to analyze data across missions or to store data for future analysis, you can easily export your data from Dscout and import it to your HeyMarvin project.

**For guidance on getting your Dscout study data into HeyMarvin, select your study type below:**

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Usability tests" %}
Dscout usability tests capture full session recordings as well as transcripts of participant responses. You can export both of these directly from your study and import them together into HeyMarvin. HeyMarvin will automatically map your media files to the corresponding participant for you.

{% hint style="info" %}
It is not currently possible to import card sort questions from Dscout into HeyMarvin.
{% endhint %}

#### Export data from Dscout

To start, you’ll export your usability test responses from Dscout, including both the transcripts (in a **.csv** file) and the full session recordings (in a **.zip** file).

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
In Dscout, navigate to the **Responses** tab of your usability test.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

{% step %}
On the **Basic** tab of the export modal, download both **Entry data (.csv)** and **Full session recordings (.zip)**.

Exports may take some time depending on the amount of data in your study. A progress modal will be displayed when your export is ready. Click **Download** in the modal to download your files.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Now, your entry data and full session recordings are downloaded to your computer. These are the files you’ll upload directly to HeyMarvin in the next section.
