# Exporting Metadata into Your NLE

How to easily export any view into your NLE

Shade supports exporting metadata as CSV, TXT, ALE, and TSV files, plus presets for **Premiere Pro**, **DaVinci Resolve**, and **Avid Media Composer** (the Premiere Pro and Avid presets export an ALE file; the DaVinci Resolve preset exports a CSV). To export, open the view or folder you'd like, click the **More options** (…) menu, choose **Export**, and pick a format. In a collection, the same export options are in the collection's download menu.

## Specific notes for properly importing media into Davinci Resolve

To import Shade Metadata into Davinci Resolve, make sure you disable "Match using clip start and end Timecode". This can be found by first importing metadata to the entire media pool (or selected clips)

And then explicitly de-selecting the start and end time code checkbox.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://academy.shade.inc/ai-tools/exporting-metadata-into-your-nle.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
