- Formulas are exported as their values.
CSV limitations to know
CSV stores plain values only – no formatting, formulas, colours or multiple sheets. That is why each sheet becomes its own CSV file. Formulas are exported as their calculated results, so the data stays correct even in tools that cannot calculate.
Separators and encoding
Some regions use semicolons instead of commas because the comma is the decimal separator. The output is UTF-8, which keeps accented and non-Latin characters intact when imported into databases, CRMs and email tools.
