Introduction

The latest release of the extension 0.0.18 added a new feature to remove the empty columns from your exported files. This feature is really useful because it allows you to get only the data you need and remove the clutter.

Sometimes, not all the columns are filled with data. For example, if you are exporting the MLS ID data, the MLS ID column will be empty for the listings that do not have a MLS ID.

In this case, if you decide to remove the empty columns from your exported files and the MLS ID column is empty for all the listings, then the MLS ID column will be removed from your exported files automatically.

On the Free plan, you cannot export more than 40 listings per file and you cannot remove the empty columns from your exported files. If you want to export more than 40 listings per file or if you want to remove the empty columns from your exported files automatically, you need to upgrade to the Hobby plan.

Remove the empty columns from your exported files

To remove the empty columns from your exported files, you need to go to the Export Settings in th extension popup and click the Remove empty columns checkbox.

Then you need to save your changes.

You can also update this setting from the website by going to the Extension fields settings page and clicking the Remove empty columns checkbox for each property type.

Once you have saved your changes, you can export your data and the empty columns will be removed from your exported files.
