Audience: Event organisers sharing results with federations, Eventor, or other systems.

How to export results and event data into the formats other systems expect.

What this page will cover ​

  • [ ] Exporting results as IOF XML
  • [ ] Exporting to Eventor

  • [ ] What to do with the event folder after the competition

Exporting the entry list ​

Who has entered — as opposed to when they start or how they got on — is exported from the Competitors page: Actions → Export entry list, in IOF XML, Orienteering JSON or CSV. It's written up where the menu lives: see Exporting the entry list.

Two things worth knowing before you reach for it:

  • The export is always the whole event, never the filtered list you're looking at.
  • The CSV is designed to be edited and re-imported — though not every column comes back. The round-trip table says which do.

Exporting a multi-stage event ​

Both standings exports live on the Actions menu of the carnival's Standings tab, alongside Recompute.

Overall standings as CSV — Export CSV. One row per competitor, one column per stage, plus the total: the shape a prize-giving spreadsheet wants. A stage that didn't count is bracketed rather than blanked, and a provisional total keeps its *, so the file says what the screen said. Export one class or all of them.

Overall standings as PDF — Export PDF. The table laid out for printing or pinning up, matching whatever you have on screen: the class or combined view you have selected, and your Show and Times settings.

IOF XML per stage — export a stage's results as IOF XML the usual way. Because the event is a stage, the file also carries the stage's raceNumber and each competitor's overall standing as an IOF OverallResult. That is the IOF standard's own answer to multi-stage results, so SplitsBrowser, Eventor and Livelox read it with no bespoke format. A standalone event's export is unchanged.

See Multi-stage events.

A knock-out competition's classification has no export yet — it is on screen only. Each round's own results export normally, as any event's do. See Knock-out competitions.

Exporting as Orienteering JSON ​

Everything Manager exports as IOF XML it also exports as Orienteering JSON — a published format with a JSON Schema, carrying the things the XML has no room for: split-time columns as data, a relay team's own result, whether a split came from a card or a radio, and millisecond precision. If you are writing something that reads a Manager event — a club results page, a spreadsheet pipeline, an app — that is the format to read.

See Orienteering JSON (OJSON) for the endpoints, the field reference and the schema.
