Download Meta Ads Reports in Excel (CSV)

Yes. Meta Ads Manager lets you export reports as either .csv (comma-separated values) or .xlsx (native Excel format). Both options are available via the Export dropdown in Ads Manager. Use .xlsx if you want the file to open directly in Microsoft Excel with formatting intact, or .csv for maximum compatibility with other tools like Google Sheets.

The export includes the columns currently visible in your Ads Manager view for the selected level (Campaigns, Ad Sets, or Ads). To export specific metrics, customise your column set in Ads Manager before exporting. This lets you include data like impressions, clicks, cost, conversions, CPM, CPC, and more.

Yes. Set your desired date range using the date picker in Ads Manager before clicking Export. The downloaded file will only contain data for the selected time period. This works for any date range — last 7 days, last 30 days, a custom range, or lifetime.

Yes. If you are viewing the Campaigns level in Ads Manager, the export will include all campaigns shown in the current view. You can filter by campaign status or use the search bar to narrow down campaigns before exporting if you only need a subset.

CSV is a plain-text format that works with virtually any spreadsheet tool — Excel, Google Sheets, Looker Studio, Python, etc. XLSX is Microsoft Excel's native format and may preserve column widths and formatting better when opened directly in Excel. For reporting workflows or data pipelines, CSV is usually the more flexible choice.

Yes. Meta Ads Manager has a Schedule Export feature that lets you automatically send reports to your email on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. See the Schedule Meta Ads Report Delivery tutorial for a step-by-step walkthrough.
