Export data from hosted feature layers

You can export CSV files, shapefiles, a file geodatabase, GeoJSON files, or feature collections from a hosted feature layer if one of the following is true:

• You own the features.
• You are an administrator for your ArcGIS Online organization.
• You aren't the hosted feature layer owner or the administrator, but the owner or administrator has configured the hosted feature layer to allow others to export the data.

  This setting can be changed on the item page Settings tab by checking the Allow others to export to different formats box under Export Data.

Only nonspatial attributes are exported to a CSV file when you export a line or polygon layer from a hosted feature layer. When you export a point layer to a CSV file, latitude and longitude values for the points are exported.

All exported items are stored in the root folder of My Content.

Follow these steps to export from a hosted feature layer:

1. Sign in and open the item page for the features you want to export.
   • If you own the features, click My Content and click the item title.
   • If you do not own the features, search for the layer, and click the feature layer name in the search results list.
2. If you want to export individual layers, find the Layers section of the Overview tab, click Export To under the layer you want to export, and choose the format you want to export. If you want to export all the layers in the hosted feature layer, click the Export Data button on the Overview tab and choose the format you want to export.
   • Export to Shapefile creates a compressed file (.zip) containing a shapefile for each layer of your content that you export. You can download the file and save it to your computer.
   • Export to CSV file creates a comma-separated values file when you export from a layer. You can open the file or save it to your computer. If you export all layers to CSV, a CSV Collection is created, which is a .zip file containing one CSV file per layer. You can download the .zip file and save it to your computer.
   • Export to FGDB creates a .zip file containing a file geodatabase. The file geodatabase contains a feature class. You can download the .zip file and save it to your computer. Note that the .zip file uses the name you specify for the Title, but the geodatabase name is randomly generated, and the feature class has the same name as the layer you exported.
   • Export to GeoJSON creates a GeoJSON file containing definitions for all layers you export. You can download the file and save it to your computer.
   • Export to Feature Collection creates a feature collection you can open in the map viewer.

     Choose Generalize features for web display to optimize the layer for web apps. You can only generalize features from layers published in the WGS 1984 Web Mercator (Auxiliary Sphere) coordinate system. Note that exported feature collections that are generalized for web display do not work in desktop and mobile apps.

     Alternatively, choose Keep original features if you need to maintain all the precision in your data, or if you intend to use the feature collection in desktop or mobile apps.

Use Hosted Web Layers

Hope it helps!!!
