# Export graduation applications

Use this endpoint to export graduation applications, one row per application and program, so an application for two programs has two rows. Each row has the application's status and when and by whom it last changed. Filter with `updated_since`, `student_ids` (a JSON array of usernames), `term_id`, or `academic_year`. The file always comes back in the response.

#### Notes

* **Superseded and inactive applications are included.** Deleted ones aren't. `Student ID` is the student's username, and `Graduation Application ID` is the application's SIS ID.
* **`updated_since` is in UTC and can't include an offset or `Z`.** It matches applications created or changed after that time. `use_local_timezone=true` converts only the `Status last updated at` column, to the time zone of the account behind your token.
* **`Status last updated at` and `by` come from the latest recorded change.** A change with no author shows your institution's short name. An application with no recorded changes leaves both blank, though its status is still filled in.
* **Parse the CSV with a CSV reader.** The default timestamp, `MM/DD/YYYY, HH:MM:SS`, contains a comma. `use_iso_format=true` returns `2024-03-15 14:30:25+00:00` instead.
* **`Program Enrollment Level` is the program's level.** It's blank when there's no program or the level is your default.
