When exporting coding results from AmCAT, you first have to specify the format of the dataset and the variables to include.
In this screen:
• Include duplicates indicates whether articles that are included in more than one codingjob, should also be exported more than once.
• Currently, .csv, .xlsx and json are supported export formats.
• Metadata such as date, headline and medium are coded automatically by AmCAT. Select here which metadata to include in the dataset.
• Under ‘Field options’ – the manually coded variables- you can select for each variable whether you only want to export its values (the number given to the code by amcat), its labels (entered for each code in the codebook editor) or both.
• ‘Export # parents’ is for hierarchical codebooks – each ‘# parent’ creates an additional variable for a higher level in the hierarchy.
