Export Data as a Zip

Learn how to export data effortlessly as a zip with OpenBOM.

While OpenBOM allows you to share data between engineers, contract manufacturers, and suppliers seamlessly, the zip export functionality is convenient for those who prefer an alternative to real-time sharing.

What’s special about this feature?

  • Automatically compiles all the necessary data files associated with your bill of materials (BOM), including documents, CAD files, and derivatives
